New Tutorial Alert! IPFS Regular Files API

[terichadbourne]

Hey there, @ProtoSchool/chapter-organizers!

For those who haven't spotted it yet, I just wanted to let you know that we've published a new tutorial on the IPFS Regular Files API. This tutorial covers the top-level portion of the IPFS Files API, including add, cat, get, and ls.

Notice that the Regular Files API is different from the Mutable File System, the abstraction which lets you work with immutable content in IPFS as those you were working with files and folders in a UNIX-style file system, where methods take the format ipfs.files.someMethod(). We have an existing tutorial on MFS that you may have already shared with your members.

In the first lesson of the new tutorial you'll find an explanation of how the Regular Files API differs both from MFS and from the DAG API.

A new tutorial is a great excuse to plan your next chapter event! When you host your next ProtoSchool workshop, please encourage your attendees to use the link at the bottom of their screen to submit suggestions and feedback!

You can also help your fellow chapter organizers by telling them what's working well at your events. Join the discussion!
