Slate

Current prototype (July 22nd, 2020)

Our goal is to create a new kind of storage solution that encourages collaboration and research, while also building it on a completely transparent and open source foundation. Over time, we hope to grow Slate into an elegant experience for:

Creating mood boards, hosting data, and making connections between topics you are researching
Replacing S3 with a Developer API and API keys
Every feature supported by Filecoin
Storing images and sharing them with friends :)

Slate is a client for Filecoin, Powered by Textile's Powergate and Buckets.

Slate is built by a growing community of collaborators and contributors. If you’re interested in…
