Kubo was the first IPFS implementation and is the most widely used one today. Implementing the Interplanetary Filesystem - the Web3 standard for content-addressing, interoperable with HTTP. Thus powered by IPLD's data models and the libp2p for network communication. Kubo is written in Go. IPFS is a global, versioned, peer-to-peer filesystem. It combines good ideas from previous systems such as Git, BitTorrent, Kademlia, SFS, and the Web. It is like a single BitTorrent swarm, exchanging git objects. IPFS provides an interface as simple as the HTTP web, but with permanence built-in. You can also mount the world at /ipfs.
Features
- Runs an IPFS-Node as a network service
- Command Line Interface to IPFS-Nodes
- Local Web2-to-Web3 HTTP Gateway functionality
- HTTP RPC API (/api/v0) to access and control the daemon
- IPFS's internal Webgui can be used to manage the Kubo nodes
- IPFS can run on most Linux, macOS, and Windows system
