# LexDAO Basics

## *Meet the Guild*

LexDAO is an association of lawyers and coders building smart contracts. This kind of "just happened" through Twitter. All of our source code, including legal templates and solidity scripts, are public goods in our library, [*LexCorpus*](https://github.com/lexDAO/LexCorpus). 

LexDAO has three emergent community hooks:

### ***Cooperative*** ⚔️
