# Carbon Decentralized Identifiers
22

3-
An implementation of the [Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) v1.0](https://www.w3.org/TR/did-core/) in Java.
3+
Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) are a W3C standard for creating and resolving
4+
persistent, verifiable identifiers without centralized registries or authorities.
5+
They enable secure, portable, and self-sovereign identity for people,
6+
organizations, and devices.
7+
8+
Carbon provides a Java implementation of the
9+
[Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) v1.0](https://www.w3.org/TR/did-core/)
10+
specification, making it easier to build and integrate DID-based solutions
11+
in Java applications.
12+
13+
The library defines core primitives such as `Did` and `DidUrl` for working with
14+
identifiers, together with interfaces for resolving DIDs into DID Documents.
15+
These components form the foundation for parsing, constructing, and resolving
16+
identifiers in a modular and extensible way, supporting multiple DID methods
17+
and resolution strategies.
