2121If computers are going to be a part of our lives for generations to come, we need a sound foundation for them. We need a _system_, not a grab bag of apps and services. Urbit is that system.

4949Urbit began as a sketch, driven from a basic intuition that a better platform could be built. Today, Urbit is two components: Urbit ID, an identity system that’s already live on Ethereum; and Urbit OS, a decentralized network and OS stack that’s young but working well.

1313Owning a computer, especially a server, can feel like a job. Urbit, on the other hand, is engineered to be maintenance free. We figure that if people are actually going to use a new computing platform, it can’t feel like work. At all.

2929Until Urbit OS is completely secure (in the next year or so, we hope), you can interact with Urbit ID through a standalone, browser-based interface called [Bridge](https://bridge.urbit.org). Bridge lets you securely manage your keys, transfer your Urbit ID, log in to Urbit OS, and so on.
