  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale

  • TypeScript

    TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that compiles to clean JavaScript output.

    We will use React and TypeScript to build the application and a few services that facilitate the more complex part of the architecture.

  • web3.storage

    DEPRECATED ⁂ The simple file storage service for IPFS & Filecoin

    The last service we use is the one we know from the previous article, Web3Storage. It allows us to upload our encrypted files to the Filecoin network to access them via IPFS. The cool thing about this service: the accounts are user-owned and not app owned. While Web3Storage allows app-owned accounts, meaning the files will be managed by the app's creator, it also allows user-owned accounts that require the users to manage their uploads. It comes with a generous free tier, so the users can start uploading without paying anything.
