The **js‑ipld** package provides a JavaScript library for working with IPLD (InterPlanetary Linked‑Data) objects—storing, retrieving, resolving and traversing nodes identified by CIDs through a configurable block service. It is aimed at developers building applications on IPFS or other distributed systems who need a programmable interface to handle IPLD formats such as dag‑cbor, dag‑pb, raw and extensible custom codecs.
