# The Nimbus book
Nimbus is an Ethereum 2.0 client focused on offering the best user experience possible for low-resource devices.
Nimbus is a client implementation for both Ethereum 2.0 and Ethereum 1.0 that strives to be as lightweight as possible in terms of resources used. This allows it to perform well on embedded systems, resource-restricted devices -- including Raspberry Pis and mobile devices.
However, resource-restricted hardware is not the only thing Nimbus is good for. Its low resource consumption makes it easy to run Nimbus together with other workloads on your server (this is especially valuable for eth2 stakers looking to lower the cost of their server instances).
This book explains the ways in which you can use Nimbus to either monitor the eth2 chain or become a fully-fledged validator.
