# Discovery Mechanism

The **Discovery Mechanism** in Dappscape is a decentralized keyword registry and curation system designed to simplify finding high-quality dApps. Users can discover featured and highlighted dApps through a decentralized welcome page. 

Key features include:

* **Keyword Registry:** Developers can register keywords for their dApps, improving their visibility in user searches. This decentralized system ensures no centralized party controls the rankings or listings.
* **Featured DApps:** A section highlighting top-performing or innovative dApps based on performance, reviews, and user engagement - not ads or paid placements.

Decentralized Curation: Community members can participate in the curation process, ensuring that the best and most innovative dApps are promoted based on merit.
