So anybody can access content on the network if they have the correct CID.
One project I am particularly excited about is web3.storage, which is a free service that reduces the friction of using decentralized storage.
In this post, I will …
- Provide an introduction to web3.storage and how to set it up
- Provide examples of basic CRUD operations with IPFS in Python
- Describe my current solution to create a decentralized data repository
Our aim today is to provide a user-friendly experience that massively…
