It supports Ether and ERC-20 tokens and runs on top of [Parity Ethereum](https://github.com/paritytech/parity-ethereum) light client allowing smooth synchronization and interaction with the Ethereum blockchain, in a decentralized manner. By default, Parity Fether alpha runs on the Kovan test network. You can receive free Kovan Ether by posting your address in the [Kovan Faucet](https://gitter.im/kovan-testnet/faucet) Gitter channel. Fether will download and launch Parity Ethereum node at startup if it's not found on the computer.
