Over time, code libraries have a habit of expanding like that one “utility” drawer in your kitchen. At first, it’s helpful—everything in its right place, ready for use.

Interplanetary File System (IPFS) is a peer-to-peer distributed file hosting protocol. When a file or collection of files in a folder are uploaded to the IPFS network. Each individual file and folder is identified with a Content Identifier (CID).

This CID represents a thumbprint that uniquey identifies a file or folder. If the file, or a folder’s contents, are modified in any way the CID will change.

So, how does this help?
