Hey everyone 👋 I work on Slate at Protocol Labs with @probablyharis, @martinalong, @astrangel00p, @jason_leyser, @gndclouds, @jordattebayo, and @akuokojnr. We are excited to invite you to try our vision for a product built on top of IPFS & Filecoin. Slate is open source software that makes it easy to collect, organize, and share your files anywhere on the web. The team choose to be open source because we want people to have more power over the software they use. We built on top of IPFS, Filecoin, and Textile services to demonstrate the capabilities of new modern web infrastructure. Slate is tightly scoped for the present and more broadly thought out for the future. Our goal is to create a best-in-class experience for uploading, collecting, and sharing media. Additional filetypes will be supported, but our focus is to start with the pieces that apply to everyone and then dial into specific formats. Come join our growing community of contributors from around the world. Open source brand book: https://slate.host/slate/brand Github: https://github.com/filecoin-proj... Let us know if there is anything we can do for you!

@meanjim First thing I tried to do was upload an illustrator file and it's not supported sadly! From a creative designer perspective .ai and .psd support and/or font files would make this not only a great curating tool but an awesome brand-guideline resource. I love the potential of this, just trying to build on it! Going to keep trying to find other ways to work this into my workflow.

@imjacobwaites This is great feedback! Thank you for sharing. We've got .ai and .psd support on the way. It won't be long :)

great idea Jacob! We would love to expand on this with you !! Knowing @probablyharis and @astrangel00p their brains are already in overdrive with ideas :)

@gndclouds We should build a way to structure an IPFS-powered website hosting platform through slate, maybe like small victories (https://www.smallvictori.es/)?

@imjacobwaites you read my mind, I already started the wireframes 😉
William Felker
@imjacobwaites which templates would you want?
Jacob Waites
@gndclouds Feed is obvious (https://polaroids.smvi.co/) but I think even a static html one would be amazing. I loved museum when it was a thing and keep a blank slate on my account so I can copy it when I need to (https://museum-usuirnci.smvi.co/).

@imjacobwaites dope! Those are great examples!
