The InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) is a set of composable, peer-to-peer protocols for addressing, routing, and transferring content-addressed data in a decentralized file system. Many popular Web3 projects are built on IPFS - see the ecosystem directory for a list of some of these projects.

Hi everyone. I'm new to IPFS and I want to use it to store data and files, using a React/Node.js app and a private blockchain. Anyway, I've seen that the main lib js-ipfs has been deprecated in favour of Helia.

Given the fact that I'm realizing a university project (nothing commercial), can I still use the old library instead of Helia? There are tons of guides, tutorials, examples of it while there is literally nothing about Helia (even the doc is everything but clear).

I had many issues with Helia a couple months ago especially connecting to the open IPFS network due to lack of documentation but I believe something changed
