# Indicio Testnet

## Indicio TestNet

#### Your enterprise-grade network for exploring new ideas for powerful decentralized identity solutions.

The Indicio TestNet is a free to use community resource built on the open-source technology of Hyperledger [Indy](https://www.lfdecentralizedtrust.org/projects/hyperledger-indy), [Aries](https://www.lfdecentralizedtrust.org/projects/aries) and [Ursa](https://www.lfdecentralizedtrust.org/projects). It provides a neutral, independent, and reliable decentralized network for the exchange of verifiable credentials.

Combine the TestNet with optional support from our team of experienced engineers, and you’ll have everything you need to start building on a network you can depend on!

## Start writing to the TestNet today!

To begin using the TestNet, follow these steps:

1. Create a public DID (decentralized identifier). This can be done with the [indy-cli](https://github.com/hyperledger-archives/indy-sdk/blob/main/cli/README.md), with the [Aries Toolbox](https://github.com/hyperledger-archives/aries-toolbox), an app of your choice, or by [following these instructions](https://docs.google.com/document/d/18-8MiRRuxVHn-FFWyd8LHukPNl_WNzo-tJtXK9bmZfY/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.wpvhq7vcr5ab).
2. Then, [click here](https://selfserve.indiciotech.io/) to get the DID written to the TestNet.
