Asking just because the info is a bit scarce since this is a whole new thing. I’ve found some stuff here and there, but if you had some cool source that offers some steps or guidance, it would be cool. Delete the topic if it’s redundant or innecessary 😛 Thank you!! ---

I’m a newbie and I’m slowly “clawing my way through” IPFS lol. So far I’ve got a nice bunch of links and a lot of notes I’ve takne for my own use. I might work on some blogging or tutorials of my own based on my progress. Everything helps! ---

Oh, nice!! I’ll keep an eye on it. I’ve checked it, so I see there’s still work on it haha. For now what’s being most useful for me is this link @VictorBjelkholm sent me in another thread. > **[ipfs/js-ipfs](https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs/tree/master/examples)** > > IPFS implementation in JavaScript.
