IPFS Sync Block

Inspiration

Inspired by the pre-existing Syncing Block and IPFS

What it does

Either syncs a table to IPFS and returns a hash, or if you have a hash and the format is correct, populates your table with data from IPFS.

How I built it

Javascript and the nice Airtable examples

Challenges I ran into

Took me a while to come up with a good enough idea. Wish I had a few more days to work on it since I was bumping into some React things I'm not super familiar with.

Also having issues with releasing the app. Pretty similar to this issue

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Wrote the demo in less than 24 hours.

What I learned

Learn more React.
