INTRODUCING THE SPACE DAEMON: BUILD PRIVACY FOCUSED AND PEER TO PEER APPS.

The Space Daemon packages together IPFS, Textile Threads/Buckets, and Textile Powergate (Filecoin) into one easy to install and JS interface to make it easy to build peer to peer and privacy focused apps.

Installing the Space Daemon is easy and comes with all the tools packaged together including IPFS and Textile nodes, and also exposes gRPC methods specific to the features you want for your app including File Upload (encrypted), File Sharing (peer to peer), Filecoin Markets, and User Controlled Data. You can access the same methods using our JS client, so you don’t need to worry about gRPC calls.

Space is the next evolution of Cloud, where users can interact with apps fully private, p2p, and control their own data. The Space Deamon can essentially act as a data repository for user controlled data that apps can interact with and applications can build an ecosystem around. Imagine applications opting in for users to store their own data locally and provide experiences that ensure the best privacy and even boast peer to peer interactions between users without touching company servers. Big tech has taken advantage of user data for far too long, it’s time to let users take back control and privacy of their data. Here are the features the Space Daemon will bring to your application:

✓ Fully Private file upload via encrypted textile buckets.
✓ Peer to Peer file sharing selectively with other people and/or within teams.
✓ Identity solution enabling users to be fully anonymous or have as many identity associations
✓ Filecoin network interaction for file storage and retrieval market.
✓ Super easy to use Js library with easy to understand functions for File CRUD, Sharing, Identity, Backups, etc.
✓ Datastore for applications and application registry to enable user data controlled applications
✓ Trustless Data backups
✓ Local file system mounting
