IIPFS in Africa
How many of the tracked developers in each country contribute to IPFS, and how that changes. A developer counts for IPFS when they contribute to any project in it, as the source files them. Every count is an observed minimum.
Shares are of each country's own tracked active developers. Changes compare the same ecosystem in the same country.
No country has 5 or more developers in IPFS in Q3 2026.
Changes, intensity and tenure are published for the latest eight quarters where a country has 20 or more developers in the ecosystem. Shares need at least 50 active developers in the country and 5 in the ecosystem; a cell under 5 developers is not published.
Share of active developers contributing to IPFS
Each quarter, in each market and in the tracked markets together. Shares of different denominators: compare a country with itself over time before comparing countries.
