IPFS Content Addressed Archiver ✨📦

Use your browser to hash files with IPFS and export them as a verifiable content-addressed archive

Content-addressed archives store data as blocks (a sequence of bytes) each prefixed with the Content ID (CID) derived from the hash of the data; typically in a file with a .car extension.

You can import .car files into an IPFS node using the command line or the HTTP API. Doing so will verify the data and provide the files, p2p style over the IPFS network.

$ ipfs dag import <my.car>

This website does not do that. It just creates a .car file for you. If you want the full publish to IPFS from a website experience, check out https://share.ipfs.io

This website shows how you can create IPFS hashes in the browser, and export the blocks in a portable, verifiable, content-addressed archive.
