Monthly Progress Report - Month 1 (Enhanced s5.js Grant)
What progress was made on your grant this month?
• Completed comprehensive architectural design for Enhanced s5.js, documenting path-based APIs, DAG-CBOR serialisation, and HAMT sharding implementation
• Consulted with Redsolver (s5 author) who provided valuable architectural guidance and reviewed the initial design approach
• Established repository structure with CI/CD pipeline configuration and development toolchain
• Created detailed DirV1 type definitions that match the Rust S5 v1 implementation, ensuring cross-implementation compatibility
• Designed deterministic CBOR encoding configuration to guarantee consistent content addressing across platforms
• Developed comprehensive media processing architecture with WASM foundation and browser compatibility layers
List repos worked on this month with links to PRs and relevant commits.
• Link to Enhanced S5_js - Revised Code Design.md
• Link to Enhanced S5_js - Revised Code Design - part II.md
What will you be working on next month?
• Implement DirV1 serialisation/deserialisation with DAG-CBOR, including proper integer key mappings matching Rust’s #[n(X)] attributes
• Develop basic path-based get/put operations for single-level directories with automatic directory creation
• Create comprehensive unit tests for deterministic CBOR encoding to ensure consistent hashing
• Begin integration with existing S5 API infrastructure for the new v1 specification
