# IP application

![Dapp](https://dappy.tech/images/ipapp.png)

IP applications refer to websites that use the decentralized Dappy name service instead of the Domain Name System. An IP application is finally served by a central server, just like regular websites.

An IP application is loaded in the context of a browser that implements the dappy protocol.

See the sections specific to browser and web applications, and of course [name system](/dappy-spec/specs-and-web-standards/name-system.md) and  [co-resolution section](/dappy-spec/glossary/multi-request.md).
