Intergalactic

Intergalactic is a client-side gateway to the IPFS distributed web. After the initial page load and bootstrapping, it pulls content from IPFS peers entirely in your browser.

Motivation

Intergalactic brings the distributed web to anyone with a web browser. Web developers and content producers, simply publish your content through IPFS, and then bring it to your users with Intergalactic. All without downloads, software installation, or running IPFS yourself.

Installation

npm install

TODO

Usage

Development

First, run the following from your copy of Intergalactic's source code:

node server.js

Then, enter a URL like http://localhost:3000/ipfs/<hash> into your web browser, where <hash> is the IPFS hash of some content on the network.

If the corresponding content is loadable, it will load and render in your browser.

Open your browser's web console to see what's going on and debug any issues loading content.

Production

TODO

Compatibility

So far, this is only tested in Firefox 57 on Linux. If you have success or issues on other browsers, please let me know.
