Welcome to the Textile documentation. Whether you are an expert or an absolute beginner, you'll find your answers here. Pick a starting point below, or use the search box to find documents matching your keywords.
Textile is designed to connect and extend Libp2p, IPFS, and Filecoin. Below, you'll find the three technologies that makeup Textile: the Hub, ThreadDB, and the Powergate. Together, these tools should help you build apps that are only limited by your imagination!
The Hub¶
The Hub is a portal to the IPFS network. Use Textile's managed services to persist your data on the IPFS network, enhance the speed and availability of your decentralized databases, and more. The Hub has APIs for developers and teams to push data to the network and it has developer libraries to provide remote IPFS pinning in your apps or simplify the deployment of our decentralized database, ThreadDB.

ThreadDB¶
ThreadDB is a secure, decentralized, p2p database built on IPFS and Libp2p. Developers use ThreadDB so they can spend less time configuring encryption or managing content addresses, instead ThreadDB allows them to start building right away. A familiar MongoDB/Mongoose API and simple data hosting services make dynamic data on the DWeb easy!

Filecoin Powergate¶
The Powergate is just warming up! We are building an API driven solution to deploy hybrid Filecoin and IPFS storage into your app. If you are eager to learn more about what we are up to, we invite you to follow our bi-weekly community updates or follow along in the the open-source repo.
