IPFS Web UI

A web interface to IPFS, shipped with Kubo, and ipfs-desktop. Check on your node stats, explore the IPLD powered merkle forest, see peers around the world and manage your files, without needing to touch the CLI. When working on the code, run an ipfs daemon, the local dev server, the unit tests, and the storybook component viewer and see the results of your changes as you save files. If you need to run IPFS in a Docker container, you can still have Web UI available by exposing both the Gateway and Web UI ports. The end-to-end tests (E2E) test the full app in a headless Chromium browser. They spawn real IPFS node for HTTP API and a static HTTP server to serve the app. The purpose of those tests is not being comprehensible, but act as a quick regression and integration suite.

Features

• We aim to support ipfs-webui development and build with "Current" and "Active LTS" Nodejs versions
• The app uses kubo-rpc-client to communicate with your local IPFS node
• The app is built with create-react-app
• If you need to run IPFS in a Docker container, you can still have Web UI available by exposing both the Gateway and Web UI ports
• The end-to-end tests (E2E) test the full app in a headless Chromium browser
• The WebUI uses Jest to run the isolated unit tests
