Daily Breakfast
From best practices to the mistakes made along the way, this track is a chance to highlight how members of the community are running IPFS nodes at scale. Let's share what's working well and what implementations can do to make things even better!
How do we deliver IPFS content to the masses? In this track, we'll dive into the magical and maddening topic of HTTP Gateways. Topics include the evolving semantics of /ipfs/cid, .car blocks and rendered flat files, and large-scale efforts to improve gateway architectures such as Project Saturn and Project Rhea.
A data-driven approach to the design and operation of IPFS and libp2p through rigorous network measurements, performance evaluation, and recommendations for builders and operators.
Approaches and protocols to content routing in IPFS, what we've learned so far, and directions for the future. Join this track to explore herding CIDs, bringing content providers closer to the seekers of content, new advances across content routing systems, and a fresh look at the horizon of what's to come.
Come join the Protocol Thunderdome as we battle to determine the best way to move content addressed bytes! We'll review recent progress in data transfer, including work coming out of the Move The Bytes Working Group, and explore how we can make IPFS 10x faster at getting your stuff than Web2!
This track sits at the intersection of IPFS standards, governance, and dweb and regulation. What's the latest on the IPFS protocol and governance? What specific problems do we face regarding existing regulation? What new regulation or changes could be helpful? Are there interesting policy angles that we can surface, develop, and advocate for? How do we make the dweb a robust, sustainable commons?
The world wide web is both the biggest deployment vector and least tractable surface for IPFS. There are opportunities and major challenges to bringing IPFS support in web rendering engines and browsers, to web content served through gateways, to IPFS network access from HTTP web apps and browser extensions. This track will have talks on: current and future browser implementations, approaches to managing and publishing IPFS content on the web, building apps that connect to the IPFS from within HTTP contexts, culminating in planning for group working sessions around on specific IPFS+Web challenges on day 4 & 5 of IPFS þing.
Daily Lunch Break
There’s a new class of distributed database technologies building atop steady advances in IPLD & hash linked data structures in general. In this track we’ll gather those brave enough to take on CAP theorem in a decentralized context, share notes on what’s working, and hear presentations from teams pushing the envelope on what databases can do and where they can exist.
You are welcome to support the event at this General Ticket price if you are able and would like to leave your Early Bird ticket for another.
Your supporter's ticket covers the cost of your own attendance & contributes to the IPFS Scholar's Program for others to attend as well. Thank you for your support!
The IPFS þing Scholars program offers a fully-paid for opportunity for individuals from underrepresented communities or unique circumstances to join this event!
Nominate a Scholar by March 20th, 2023.
IPFS þing is a collaborative workshop series for the IPFS implementors community. There will be talks, workshops, discussion circles, co-working and hacking time, and more — all focused on advancing IPFS implementations.
This event brings together maintainers or core contributors of an IPFS implementation, ranging from production usage to working demos. If this describes you, please join! If you are unsure, email ipfs-thing-2023@ipfs.io.
If you are an IPFS user, tooling developer, collaborator, or curious community member, we enthusiastically invite you to IPFS Camp, an epic decentralized event organized by the community, for the community.
Details on IPFS Camp 2023 are coming soon and will be announced on Twitter. Follow to make sure you don't miss any updates!
