# Set of Implementations
|
||
|
||
## Waku v2 builds on `libp2p`,
|
||
a modular peer-to-peer network stack.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Note:
|
||
Often when people encounter Waku v2 for the first time, the relationship with `libp2p` is not immediately clear.
|
||
Waku v2 protocols build on the p2p network stack provided by `libp2p` and adds some functionality to it.
|
||
Waku v1 and Whisper were built on `devp2p`.
|
||
`libp2p` is basically “devp2p done right”.
|
||
For example, there are some [fundamental issues with encryption](https://github.com/ethereum/devp2p/blob/master/rlpx.md#known-issues-in-the-current-version) in `devp2p` and, although things like ETH1 is currently running on it, no one else is really building on `devp2p`.
|
||
`libp2p` was developed for IPFS but now many projects use it, Ethereum 2 included. It is therefore quite mature, with many implementations and a large part of the crypto/p2p community behind it. While it’s not perfect, it’s very modular and easy to extend with new transports, user-defined protocols, etc.

### **Gauge Definitions:**
|
||
|
||
Prep (*Difficulty*) is defined as the ease of which the concepts can be generally understood. (Future: Make into more fun visual or something more enjoyable than a difficulty bar.)
|
||
|
||
Cook Time (*Scope*) is in reference to the size of information necessary to learn to gain a decent level of comprehension.
|
||
|
||
Ingredients (*Resources*) is for links relevant to helping people understand the concepts. Number references and use superscript notation to reference mentions in terminology Recipes descriptions.
