Adding IPFS to your Apps
summary
Shows a concrete path to run IPFS on iOS by compiling go-ipfs into a Go library called go-textile and producing an embedded ipfs peer callable from Swift via go mobile, trimming mobile nodes to leaf-only mobile nodes so phones don’t route or burn CPU. Uses SHA-256 content addressing, exposes both IPFS and HTTP upload endpoints, and relies on remote caching trustless cafes to keep hashes available when devices sleep. Demonstrations include IPFS-hosted mirrors of Wikipedia in Turkey and early healthcare file‑exchange prototypes, with CI builds and open source code.
