NPM on IPFS

npm-on-ipfs enables you to install your favourite modules from the distributed web using IPFS, as well as to have a cache always ready and shared on your local network

Goal

Use whatever resources available to you, in order to come up with a visual representation of the topic that can be projected on to a poster (similar in spirit to the poster description but with whatever creative freedom your group prefers :^)

Questions to Answer

What benefits are there to using IPFS to fetch NPM packages over conventional HTTP? Has NPM's infrastructure ever had issues that caused user's problems?

Where to learn about it
