# FabAccess Diflouroborane
|
|
|
|
Diflouroborane (shorter: BFFH, the chemical formula for Diflouroborane) is the server part of
|
|
FabAccess.
|
|
It provides a server-side implementation of the [FabAccess API](https://gitlab.com/fabinfra/fabaccess/fabaccess-api).
|
|
|
|
## What is this?
|
|
|
|
FabAccess is a prototype-grade software suite for managing access, mostly aimed
|
|
at Makerspaces, FabLabs, and other open workshops. It is designed to allow secure access control to
|
|
machines and other equipment that is dangerous or expensive to use. It tries to also be cheap enough
|
|
to be used for all other things one would like to give exclusive access to even when they are not
|
|
dangerous or expensive to use (think 3D printers, smart lightbulbs, meeting rooms).
|
|
|
|
FabAccess uses a Client/Server architecture with a [Cap'n Proto](https://capnproto.org/) API. You
|
|
can find the API schema files over [in their own repository](https://gitlab.com/fabinfra/fabaccess/fabaccess-api).
|
|
The reference client is [Borepin](https://gitlab.com/fabinfra/fabaccess/borepin), written in C#/Xamarin to be able to
|
|
be ported to as many platforms as possible.
