JavaScript Filecoin HTTP API client

One awesome project we’ve been seeing getting a lot of usage lately is the JavaScript Filecoin HTTP API client maintained by IPFS core dev @alanshaw.

It’s a JavaScript wrapper for the Filecoin HTTP API, and has already been used in projects such as:

• @jimpick’s Browse Asks CLI tool, which is a really nice CLI tool that makes it much easier to browse ask orders on the Filecoin network
• @jimpick’s Big Head tool, which is a nifty and retro way to check your node’s chain sync progress

If you’re already using the JS API library or planning on using it, make sure to give @alanshaw a shout-out!
