    Kernel is a peer-learning institution

    A Kernel Block welcomes you into Kernel with ~200 unique, talented, and diverse peers.

    In a block, fellows hone a craft, further projects, and explore fundamental ideas related to the web.

    Each block is a unique experience - co-directed by fellows, dedicated to building a better web, together.

    Kernel Block 9 runs July-September 2024.

    Learn & Craft

    Our web is our shared environment. The Kernel book displays how decentralized, peer-to-peer, open-source, and onchain technologies help us relate and serves as a source of dialogue for Kernel Fellows during a block.

    Kernel Principles

    Kernel is about balance. Each week we explore two principles through dialogue and our chosen craft. The priority is relating well.
