PERMA

Perma is a prototype of permanent video storage and client-side rendering using Next.js, Arweave, and Bundlr.

Technologies used:

• Arweave - File storage
• Bundlr - Multichain solution for Arweave integration
• Next.js - React framework

Building and running the app

To run this app, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repo, change into the directory, and install dependencies:

git clone [email protected]:dabit3/perma.git

cd perma

npm install 

# or

yarn 

2. Update the APP_NAME in __utils.js __ to something that is unique to your app, could be anything you'd like:

export const APP_NAME = "YOUR_UNIQUE_APP_NAME"

3. Run the app

npm run dev

Limitations

1. As of a couple of weeks ago, Bundlr was missing the indexing of some transactions on Arweave causing them to drop from GraphQL query after a set amount of time (though they were still saved to Arweave). Issue here

2. Larger files (>100MB) have had trouble saving to Bundlr. This issue has been raised here and I've spoken to one of the engineers who says they are pushing out a fix (this is a Bundlr js-client issue)
