EXPLORE / PROGRAM FRAMEWORKS
A program framework gives you the structure and tools to write on-chain programs, Solana's version of smart contracts.
Builders use them to write less boilerplate and avoid common mistakes. The main risk is bugs in your program, because deployed code handles real money.
