What's the use-case for this kind of usage of IPFS? Is it just a generic content addressable store for local use? Like perhaps use it to compile and install packages that you symlink into your system path a bit like DIY nix?
- chalst 5y agoAny application using content addressing can make use of at least some IPFS technologies. Sharing the contents of /nix/store on a local network or VPN is something I've been thinking about recently.
- skogard 5y agoI wrote a dedicated section in the documentation just for this, it can be pretty powerful: https://docs.nebulus.dev/#/?id=use-cases https://docs.nebulus.dev/#/?id=use-cases
- argvargc 5y agoLooks great, thank you for presenting it so thoughtfully too. Do I read correctly to mean Nebulus could potentially be used as a replacement for p2p file xfer, such as per wormhole? Any caveats with such a usecase? (Also, just FYI there's a one-letter typo with the first sub-title under API)
