Client based on IPFS

This is a crude tree client based on the InterPlanetary File System underneath. Each file represetns a person, and each file is distributed across IPFS. Each person maintains references or links with other people.

• Install IPFS (https://ipfs.io/docs/install/)
• run: ipfs init
• Add CORS headers
  • ipfs config --json API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Origin '["*"]'
  • ipfs config --json API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Methods '["PUT", "GET", "POST"]'
  • ipfs config --json API.HTTPHeaders.Access-Control-Allow-Credentials '["true"]'
• Run: ipfs daemon
• Go to http://localhost:5001/webui/
