IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) is a peer-to-peer distributed file system that seeks to connect all computing devices with the same system of files.
In some ways, IPFS is similar to the World Wide Web, but IPFS could be seen as a single BitTorrent swarm, exchanging objects within one Git repository. In other words, IPFS provides a high-throughput, content-addressed block storage model, with content-addressed hyperlinks. This forms a generalized Merkle directed acyclic graph (DAG).
IPFS combines a distributed hash table, an incentivized block exchange, and a self-certifying namespace. IPFS has no single point of failure, and nodes do not need to trust each other, except for every node they are connected to. Distributed Content Delivery saves bandwidth and prevents distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, a problem common with HTTP.

I tried using an instance of the https client using TS just like how it's in the docs. When I did create the instance my IDE complained about type errors.
I created the instance like this by looking at the [README](https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs/blob/ma

Seems that Firefox (around version 96-97) changed somethign and is now way more aggresive when a gateway does not start returning response immediately.
For example, first load (empty ipfs repo) of http://dist.ipfs.io.ipns.localhost:8080/go-ipfs/v0.11.0 in Firefox 97 produces:

This was cut from the v0.2.0 release for present time constraints however making ipfs-http more accessible as "the" ipfs binary would make the project more accessible to anyone just wanting to try it out. At the moment I see the following obstacles:
http/README.md has no tutorial on how to try out ipfs-httpipfs-http supports only `iThis is the main tracking issue for Naming Providers support. Naming providers can be either DNS - for use with DNSLink - or even naming services such as ENS and IPNS.
Ideally even doing things like detecting the provider from the domain name and doing the right thing.
