Description
It's not well documented yet, but there is a "safe" subset of the IPFS HTTP API exposed on the _Gateway_ port. Web UI should detect it and work with it so people can safely expose a subset of the functionality when hosting IPFS on a remote machine
You can see the read-only API in action on the Gateway:
