π’ Kubo v0.36.0 is out!
- 80-98% less Bitswap traffic during high loads
- HTTP retrieval enabled by default
- Better AutoNATv2/AutoTLS connectivity
- Enhanced file & gateway operations
Great for high-traffic nodes & operators.

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)
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

New guide on setting up a custom domain for sites @ipfs.tech deployed to IPFS with a DNSLink record using Kubo and Caddy (for TLS)
π
docs.ipfs.tech/how-to/websi...
Deploy your static sites and apps (or any build artefact) from GitHub Actions to IPFS with @storacha.network, Filebase, or self-hosted Kubo/IPFS Cluster nodes.

Helia is a modular implementation of IPFS in TypeScript
Get started with the helia-101 example which just got refresh!
- More UnixFS API examples
- Different blockstores
- Providing, pinning, and GC
Dive in π

IDK if anyone has seen this.. but IPFS Kad-DHT spec is in PR: github.com/ipfs/specs/p...
#ipfs @ipshipyard.com #dht #kademlia
The DAG builder has new defaults in line with Helia and @storacha.network π
- CIDv1s
- Raw leaves
- 1024 children
dag.ipfs.tech
CID profiles help establish CID equivalency for files/dirs (UnixFS) in @ipfs.tech in a predictable manner across implementations.
Interesting discussionπ

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.
Try it www.npmjs.com/package/@hel...
You can also use it with custom hashing functions, like BLAKE3 π
π 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 π§΅
π New guide: @ipfs.tech in Web apps with Helia
β’ Addressing data with CIDs
β’ Content retrieval by CID: strategies and trade-offs
β’ Working with CAR files
β’ Best practices for providing data in apps

π Kubo v0.33.0 is out!
Highlights:
β¨ Streamlined AutoTLS listener setup
π Shared listeners between TCP & WebSocket transports
β‘οΈ New datastore options to improve writes with Pebble
π οΈ MFS stability improvements
π New DoH resolvers for .eth and .crypto
π§° WebRTC Direct fixes

Weβre excited to share a quick update about our 2025 work-plans for @ipfs.tech at Shipyard! π
Your feedback and ideas mean a lot to us, and weβd love to hear your thoughts to make these plans even better.

Subtle but crucial distinction between recursive and non-recursive (like web seeding in Bittorrent) @ipfs.tech gateways.
