that can be used to write various NDN applications. The library is currently being
used by the following projects:

* `NFD - NDN Forwarding Daemon <https://github.com/named-data/NFD>`_
* `NLSR - Named-data Link-State Routing protocol <https://github.com/named-data/NLSR>`_
* `ndn-tools - Essential NDN command-line tools <https://github.com/named-data/ndn-tools>`_
* `repo-ng - Next generation of NDN repository <https://github.com/named-data/repo-ng>`_
* `ChronoSync - Sync library for multiuser realtime applications <https://github.com/named-data/ChronoSync>`_
* `PSync - Partial and full synchronization library <https://github.com/named-data/PSync>`_
* `ndn-traffic-generator - Traffic generator for NDN <https://github.com/named-data/ndn-traffic-generator>`_
* `NAC - Name-based Access Control <https://github.com/named-data/name-based-access-control>`_
* `NDNS - Domain Name Service for NDN <https://github.com/named-data/ndns>`_
