CYFS (CYberFileSystem) is a Rust-implemented protocol stack that upgrades the Web's basic protocols (TCP/IP+DNS+HTTP) to enable fully decentralized data ownership, publishing, and applications for Web3. It provides the core system for a named-object network where users own their data and devices (OOD) form a decentralized network.

Use cases

build decentralized web3 applications
store data on the internet with user ownership
publish immutable decentralized content with cyfs:// URLs
monetize user data as NFTs
build censorship-resistant apps that can't be shut down
replace DNS and HTTP with a decentralized naming and transfer protocol

When to choose

you want to build fully decentralized Web3 apps with user-owned data
you need decentralized storage and content publishing outside centralized platforms
you're experimenting with named-data networking as a Web protocol replacement

When to avoid

you need a production-proven mainnet - CYFS is still on testnet
you want a simple drop-in library rather than a full protocol stack
you need broad ecosystem SDK support beyond TypeScript
you require mature tooling and large community support
