Solid realizes the web as it was originally envisioned, in layman's terms.

​

In the Solid ecosystem, you own your data, and choose apps to manage it. Photos you take, comments you write, contacts in your address book, calendar events, how many miles you run each day from your fitness tracker… they’re all stored in your Solid POD.  You give people and your apps permission to read or write to parts of your Solid POD. 

​

This approach protects your privacy and is also great for developers: they can build cool apps without harvesting massive amounts of data first. Anyone can create an app that leverages what is already there.
