The State of IPFS in JS
summary
IPFS-in-JS now centers on Helia, which overtook JS IPFS and shows faster pinning and GC for large datasets; libp2p shipped v1 last November and is at v1.8 with JS libp2p TCP streaming currently the fastest implementation due to zero-copy streaming paths. HTTP pragmatics arrive via hel-http and the verified-fetch module that returns cacheable Response objects so service workers can verify and cache IPFS content in-browser. Ecosystem growth includes Interplanetary Shipyard, a $150M Farcaster round, Orbit revival, and tools for decentralized frontends.
