# What is Canopy?

Canopy can be understood by its four key layers:

1. [**Application Layer**](/canopys-four-layers/application-layer.md): User-friendly interface for effortless deployment of yield generating liquidity.
2. [**Reward Distribution Engine**](/canopys-four-layers/rewards-layer.md): Enables any project to incentivize value creating behavior with $MOVE or their project token.
3. [**Strategy Layer**](/canopys-four-layers/strategy-layer.md): Smart contracts that define optimal liquidity flows across the Movement network.
4. [**Protocol Layer**](/canopys-four-layers/protocol-layer.md): Integrated AMMs, lending platforms, perpetual DEXs (PerpDEXs), and staking platforms.

Together, these layers form a platform where liquidity providers thrive.
