# Streaming video from IPFS using ReadableStreams
2+
3+
We can use the execllent [`videostream`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/videostream) to stream video from IPFS to the browser. All we need to do is return a [`ReadableStream`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ReadableStream)-like object that contains the requested byte ranges.
4+
5+
Take a look at [`index.js`](./index.js) to see a working example.
6+
7+
## Running the demo
8+
9+
In this directory:
10+
11+
```
12+
$ npm install
13+
$ npm start
14+
```
15+
16+
Then open [http://localhost:8888](http://localhost:8888) in your browser.
