What is CREDEBL?
CREDEBL is a production-ready, open-source Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) platform that enables organizations to issue, verify, and manage verifiable credentials using open standards. It is a Digital Public Good designed for national identity programs, trust ecosystems, and privacy-preserving credential exchange. Built on top of Hyperledger Aries and the W3C DID/VC specifications, CREDEBL exposes a clean REST API so you can integrate decentralized identity capabilities into any application — without managing the complexity of the underlying cryptographic infrastructure.Quick Start

Standards and open source
CREDEBL is built on widely adopted open standards:- W3C Decentralized Identifiers (DID) v1.0 — identity infrastructure
- W3C Verifiable Credentials Data Model — credential format
- Hyperledger Aries / Credo — agent protocols and cryptography
- AnonCreds — privacy-preserving credential format
- OpenID for Verifiable Credentials (OID4VC) — interoperable credential exchange
