## What is Kubo?
Kubo is the oldest IPFS implementation, previously known as go-ipfs.
Think of it as a "jack of all trades, master of none" implementation of IPFS.
Kubo (go-ipfs) the earliest and most widely used implementation of IPFS.
It should be enough to get you started, if you find it lacking, see [other implementations](https://ipfs.io/#install).
It includes:
- an IPFS daemon server
- extensive [command line tooling](https://docs.ipfs.io/reference/cli/)
- an [HTTP Gateway](https://github.com/ipfs/specs/tree/main/http-gateways#readme) (`/ipfs/`, `/ipns/`) for serving content to HTTP browsers
- an HTTP RPC API (`/api/v0`) for controlling the daemon node
Note: [other implementations exist](https://ipfs.io/#install).
