What is Dappnet?

Dappnet is a bulletproof way to deploy websites and applications to the web, that can’t be censored, captured or taken down.

Dappnet is a bulletproof way to deploy websites and applications to the web, that can’t be censored, captured or taken down.

With one install, your browser is upgraded to access .eth domain names on ENS, and load their content from a P2P network called IPFS. You don't have to configure anything.

ENS names can't be seized, and IPFS cannot be censored. When one node is censored on IPFS, others can take its place, permissionlessly.

Dappnet runs a local IPFS node and a local Ethereum light node, meaning there is no reliance on an external provider. Your internet connection is all you need to access the Dappnet.

What other people say:

  • A capture-resistant application network, built on ENS and IPFS.

  • Self hosted frontend and infrastructure to deliver them.

  • An actually usable and performant permaweb client. Local ENS gateway and IPFS client running in the background of your web browser to natively access ENS sites

  • Full stack ENS infra built into browsers.

  • A place where you can access decentralised domains hosted on decentralised storage.
