IPFS / Launchpad: IPFS

This tutorial goes over how to use the IPFS command line API to experience IPLD pathing features which allow you navigate a directed acyclic graph (DAG). We will be navigating the DAG of the ipld.io website that is hosted on IPFS.

In this video from October 2022, Discordian will walk you through the graphical user interface for IPFS called IPFS Desktop, exploring the pages (or tabs) available in the Desktop for IPFS, as well as how to publish mutable file on IPNS for files you may want ot update and with a constant link to updated versions. You will also see how to use a permanent pinning service for IPFS

This section on Merkle DAGs from IPFS Camp 2019 goes over theory and live examples of what happens with files added to IPFS. Alan Shaw highlights different variations to the underlying data structure created with a file added to IPFS and how it affects the CID.

Start playing around with implementing IPFS in a go application, using the IPFS API. In this tutorial, you will learn how to: Add a file to IPFS, read the file from IPFS download the file to your computer, add the file to IPNS, and read the file from IPNS.

In this tutorial, you can follow along to understand the basics of how you as a user can access, add, and pin files in IPFS. Follow along with the examples to learn about pinning and adding files, how files from IPFS can be previewed and inspected, and learn a bit about how that data is created and stored on IPFS.
