What is this?

githubtoipfs is a site to backup any public GitHub repo to IPFS, creating censorship resistant code 🤘

Why did I build this?

after seeing the tornado cash github being removed, along with unrelated repos of contributors, it had given me a reminder of how much trust we put in such centralized services.

i have so many projects that aren't backed up, that can be removed at any point :(

Demo!

Usage 🤝

1. head to githubtoipfs.com
2. grab your .zip link from github by pressing code on the repo, and right-clicking download .zip
3. throw it in and we'll give ya an IPFS hash!

Deployments 💻

Vercel: https://githubtoipfs.com & https://githubtoipfs.vercel.app

For development 🧑‍💻

npm install

npm run dev

Notes

• Built in 4 hours after obsessing over the idea. Definitely needs improvement 😝
• ChakraUI & NextJS for frontend (relies on serverless to fetch repo)
