Host an Etherpad instance on IPFS #190

Open RichardLitt opened 7 years ago

RichardLitt commented 7 years ago

We've used Etherpads a lot as part of the IPFS hangout process. I raised the idea of hosting an Etherpad on an IPFS domain here, but we should also look into hosting one using IPFS.

This has been mentioned in the CRDT discussion, https://github.com/ipfs/notes/issues/40#issuecomment-147285873, too:

(c) as a "small first step" we really want to make a CRDT based Etherpad on IPFS, and a CRDT based markdown editor. I know many are out there, but are there any easy to rebase on top ipfs?

We've started using Hackmd instead of Etherpad, we still have any use-cases for Etherpad? There was a small discussion about putting Hackmd on ipfs here: https://github.com/hackmdio/hackmd/issues/251

It might be useful for others, too. :)

This has been mentioned as a possibility for showcasing orbit-db, too. See https://github.com/haadcode/orbit-db/issues/148.

Hi, interesting question. I found this topic because I am looking for a Google Docs look-a-like which is available distributed both the app as storing documents. Nice to see some of you were already looking for it a couple of years ago. http://peerpad.net/ looks nice, and if I understand it well it is using https://demo.hedgedoc.org/ . The editor is nice, but seems a but more for technical purpose than for regular document writing. I also looked into Etherpad, but I guess it can't run on IPFS because some of it's code/script is server side instead of client side. (correct me if I am wrong). Are there any other updates or resources?
