Feedback about module-1 slides

Feedback about module-1 IPFS worksheet

  • The fc00::/8 notation is confusing, it is unclear that a cjdns address of the form fc7d:1633:... is a match

  • Line breaks on the sheet is still a little confusing

  • This step in module-1 needs some example:

    Now let's add some content on example2, then type exit twice to return to example, and try to read that text back on example and from your browser. It may take a while after you first establish peering, but eventually the content will become available across the network.

  • Can we hide the docker layer? The SSH layer + docker layer is confusing. (e.g. hide it behind a program, not use docker altogether)

  • A cooler app (e.g. text chat with pubsub), note that SSB + Patchfoo integration is already underway

  • The need to add a bootstrap peer is helpful in learning that a connection is made, but the flow of SSH-ing into another device to copy its key, exit, then paste it in your device, is a little awkward, and further complicated by the docker layers

Known issues that occasionally occur and can be addressed by node reboot

  • Node boots up with Access Point name as test2 (will be addressed by current mesh-orange work)

  • One incident with EOF error when loading ipfs docker (will be addressed by current mesh-orange work)

(IPFS specific) Replace ipfs bootstrap add with ipfs swarm connect to get immediate feedback if working or not (swarm connect will print failure/success compared to bootstrap add which always show success as long as the Multiaddr is correct)
