go-hotstuff is a simple implementation of hotstuff consensus protocol.
First, run scripts/generate_keys.sh to generate threshold keys, then run scripts/run_server.sh to start four hotstuff servers. There are three kinds of networks you can choose to use, they are basic, chained and event-driven, the default network type is event-driven. There is a simple client where you can find in cmd/hotstuffclient, or you can run scripts/run_client.sh to start it.
