Seed Hypermedia builds upon the powerful foundations of @ipfs.tech for immutable data storage and auto-archiving

And of course @libp2p.bsky.social powers our networking to enable direct publishing between users on the network (as well as servers)

Service Workers for IPFS on the Web YouTube video by IPFS

In this video, we take a look at the Service Worker API, why it's useful for IPFS, and how you can use it today for verified peer-to-peer retrieval with two projects:
- Service Worker Gateway
- IPFS Drop-in Service Worker

We built Verified Fetch because we wanted a library that makes @ipfs.tech retrieval easy on the web.

It's designed with the same semantics as Fetch and abstracts all the p2p.

You can also use it with custom hashing functions, like BLAKE3 👇

🚀 Announcing AutoTLS: A breakthrough bridging IPFS and the web.

AutoTLS, a public good service by @ipshipyard.com, grants libp2p/IPFS nodes a unique domain and automates Let's Encrypt TLS certificate issuance.

Main benefit: Web apps can connect to & fetch data directly from IPFS nodes 🧵

📚 New guide: @ipfs.tech in Web apps with Helia

• Addressing data with CIDs
• Content retrieval by CID: strategies and trade-offs
• Working with CAR files
• Best practices for providing data in apps
