  2. Create a Flask application that reads and writes to IPFS & Filecoin using this client.
  3. Drop the Flask app in an Electron shell and create a cross-platform, drag-and-drop desktop app that moves local files to and from IPFS/Filecoin.
  4. Add smart contracts to the desktop app to provide escrow funding for storage deals.
