About:
Planet is a self-hosted, decentralised blogging platform that leverages IPFS for content storage and distribution, ensuring censorship resistance and offline-first capabilities. It uses the Ethereum Name System (ENS) for human-readable addressing, allowing users to publish websites without relying on traditional DNS or centralised servers. This tool provides a streamlined way to create and browse peer-to-peer websites accessible via standard web browsers.
Key Features:
  • Serverless architecture running directly in the browser
  • IPFS integration for distributed content hosting
  • ENS domain support for decentralised addressing
  • Zero-build static site generation
  • Markdown-based content authoring
Use Cases:
  • Hosting personal blogs resistant to censorship and de-platforming
  • Creating internal documentation or knowledge bases without central infrastructure
  • Publishing ephemeral project sites for developers and designers
Alternatives:
  • IPFS – Planet provides a complete blogging UI on top of IPFS, whereas raw IPFS is just a storage protocol requiring additional tools.
  • Ghost – Ghost is a centralised, database-driven platform requiring hosting, while Planet is serverless and fully decentralised.
