GitHub - PACTCare/Dweb.page: Dweb.page – Your Gateway to the Distributed Web

README.md

Dweb.page (previously Pact.online) is an open source webpage that lets you share and search content on the distributed web based on IPFS. The webpage itself runs on any writable IPFS gateway (see Hosting below). It’s one of the first distributed websites, and it's completely running in your browser, meaning you are in control of your own data. Furthermore, the website uses the distributed ledger technology IOTA to store metadata of the publicly uploaded files. The decentralized search engine integrated into the website uses this metadata to index the uploaded content. Additionally, the transfer history based on IOTA provides a transparent logging system and allows you to claim the ownership of your data.

Hosting

Dweb.page simply needs to be hosted on a writable IPFS gateway. You can easily run Dweb.page local by following the below tutorial. We think that not every single application should start their own IPFS gateway due to performance reasons. Rather you have only one IPFS gateway running on your local machine or browser. Additionally the current setup is much faster and also works for example on the Internet Explorer.

Participate

If you wish to participate you can simply set up your own IPFS node with a writeable gateway. You need to allow a maximum upload size on your server of 1GB. Lastly, reach out to us at info[at]pact[dot]care or on our discord server so we then can integrate your side on our main page. Currently, we share the IOTA donations equally among all participants at the end of every month. For transparency, you can track all donations under the current IOTA donation address. In the future, we might set up an advertising model to make it more attractive for IPFS nodes to participate.
