On February 20th, the Ethereum Foundation announced the launch of the Open Intents Framework, a modular open-source framework for building and deploying intent product experiences. Instead of building an intent infrastructure from scratch, developers can easily customize and deploy intent-based protocols with a set of modular abstractions, including solvers and composable smart contracts. Designed to facilitate cross-chain interoperability, the framework supports over 30 teams to drive together, simplifying the process by which any chain communicates intent to users, and improving the cross-chain user experience. The framework addresses key components such as solutions and billing in a modular manner, providing flexibility and allowing developers to choose the most appropriate part based on their needs without relying on a single vendor.
