Frontend Builder Introduction
Symmio is built for censorship resistance, so it provides the technical infrastructure for executing aMFQ peer-to-peer (p2p) symmetrical trades and doesn't host a frontend itself. It supplies the technology for these trades without using it to make markets or offer products to users.
To trade Symmio markets, use one of the third-party frontend applications.
Business-to-business (B2B)
Symmio operates strictly business-to-business. The infrastructure is offered to developers and exchanges, so they can build on decentralized derivatives without handling the backend themselves.
If you're interested in launching a Symmio frontend and creating your own markets on the Symmio stack, see the Profit Sharing Model.
Integrating with Symmio
Symmio gives you a full perpetual-exchange backend to integrate into an existing or new exchange. The functionality on the Symmio demo frontend can be incorporated into your platform by forking the codebase under a Frontend Use Grant, or by using the Frontend SDK. For deployment details, see the Frontend Builder Technical Guidance.
This also avoids the liquidity fragmentation that comes with forking vAMM-based perps (e.g. GMX, Gains) or order-book-based ones (e.g. dYdX). Symmio routes to a large pool of institutionally-backed liquidity providers, called Hedgers, so liquidity is aggregated rather than fragmented.

Decentralized Frontend Applications
In our quest of making the system more decentralized and censorship-resistant. Symmio itself doesn't offer any trading or promote the trading of any derivatives; Symmio only provides the infrastructure for symmetrical peer-to-peer matchmaking; 3rd party providers can use that to build a fully functional on-chain derivatives exchange. Frontend Builders (Dealers and Market Makers) offer services directly via 3rd party services. To see their offering, make deposits, request trades, etc. Users thus have to use one of the frontends provided by third parties. #https://symm.io/frontends
Which Frontend do I pick?
Deciding which Frontend to use is a personal decision based on various factors, including UI, UX, features, tools, and the Frontend Operator's liquidity on the platform or offering of products and assets.
