FilFetch

The project aims normal users without any tech experience to download files from Filecoin miners. Users can use aggregators like Lighthouse to store files but for retrieval of files from miners there is no good interface. Our product is centered around providing an excellent user experience for users to download files from miners without any technical knowledge thus increasing adoption of Filecoin.

We have used Electron to create a desktop app for file download. Files get downloaded into the Downloads directory by default. Lassie is used in the backend to get files from the Filecoin miner. ReactJS is used for creating the UI. Electron renders the react app giving users a desktop app-like experience.
