Experience
Lemon Email
One of the highlights of this project was building a Lemon Email DApp - a security-focused, completely decentralized version of Lemon Mail. Functioning as a stand-alone version of Lemon Mail, the Dapp consisted entirely of a front-end JavaScript code interacting with an Ethereum contract that serves as a back end.
All message content was end-to-end encrypted and stored on IPFS, a peer-to-peer storage network. The front-end code was open source and hosted on IPFS (despite you being free to deploy and run it anywhere you want). Utilizing decentralized technologies such as Ethereum and IPFS along with public key encryption ensures both platform stability and user privacy. No one can access other users' messages, tamper with the message content or take the service down – not even us!
Although Lemon Email Dapp uses IPFS to store encrypted content, users don't have to bother setting up local IPFS nodes to use the Dapp. The code incorporates a JavaScript IPFS library that allows the creation of temporary IPFS nodes that run within the browser and can communicate with the rest of the network.
