Post Body

Earlier this week I published ENS Content Resolver, a chrome extension that resolves ENS (.eth) domains to IPFS hashes (assuming of course that the owner has registered an IPFS hash for the domain). Give it a spin if you like :-) Any feedback would be appreciated.

While IPNS looks promising you still have to deal with non-human friendly names, something that ENS solves elegantly with DNS style domain names. As a fan of all things decentralized I think this is yet another area where Ethereum and IPFS go really well together.

Unfortunately the official ENS dapp (decentralized application) assumes you're storing Swarm hashes, not IPFS. That's why I also published a companion dapp, ipfs-to-ens, that makes it easy to store an IPFS hash as content hash for your ENS domain. Note: the dapp requires MetaMask.

If you find any of these applications useful, please star them on Github :-)
