# Integrate Tempo

Tempo is fully compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), targeting the **Osaka** EVM hard fork. So, everything you'd expect to work with Ethereum works on Tempo, with only a few exceptions which we detail on the [EVM Differences](/docs/quickstart/evm-compatibility) page.
