### IPFS API as `window.ipfs`
Your IPFS node is exposed as `window.ipfs` on every webpage.
Websites can detect if `window.ipfs` exists and opt-in to use it instead of creating their own `js-ipfs` node.
It saves system resources and battery (on mobile), avoids the overhead of peer discovery/connection, enables shared repository access and more!
Make sure to read our [notes on `window.ipfs`](https://github.com/ipfs-shipyard/ipfs-companion/blob/master/docs/window.ipfs.md), where we explain it in-depth and provide examples on how to use it your own dapp.
