We’ve all lost hours of progress on a large file upload because of an untimely internet glitch — and we all hate it. Developers want to do everything in their power to stop that from happening, but factors such as connection interruptions, long upload times, and bandwidth limitations are often

Tired of manual IPFS deployments slowing down your workflow? Manual deployments can get the job done, but they often lead to slower updates, potential errors, and wasted effort — especially as projects grow. Automated deployments, on the other hand, ensure consistency and reliability every time. But automating IPFS deployments isn’t

Rollups are Layer 2 (L2) scaling solutions that execute transactions off the Ethereum mainnet (Layer 1) while posting transaction data on L1. They significantly improve Ethereum's scalability by: 1. Processing transactions off-chain in batches 2. Posting compressed transaction data and validity proofs to Ethereum 3. Inheriting Ethereum'

Over the past few years, IPFS has become the default file network for offchain storage. When you combine immutable files with an immutable blockchain ledger, you get a powerful combination. While immutability is key to IPFS, it has also become one of its downsides. There are many crypto and blockchain

It’s an undeniable fact that blockchain technology has revolutionized what it means to have decentralized computation. Bitcoin introduced an immutable and cryptographic ledger, enabling an autonomous financial infrastructure. Ethereum took it to another level with the invention of the Ethereum Virtual Machine that can run compiled byte code on

JSON data is one of the most crucial file types when it comes to offchain storage. NFTs and other Web3 applications often utilize a Unified Resource Identifier (URI) where critical data is stored, and this is almost always in the form of a JSON file. It’s arguably the more

When working with IPFS, managing files and their associated metadata efficiently is crucial. Traditional approaches often require multiple steps: uploading files to IPFS, then separately maintaining a database of metadata associations. This creates unnecessary complexity and potential synchronization issues. Instead, imagine attaching metadata directly to your IPFS files during upload.

Remember back in 2010 when responsive design emerged as the biggest trend in web development? It was followed by the rise of single-page applications (SPAs), then Progressive Web Apps (PWAs), and more recently, Web 3.0. Similarly, the trends for 2025 will empower developers to build faster, more flexible, and
