I'm forced to use the ipfs-car CLI library now web3.storage (and nft.storage) have started to make their process a bit more restricted. I avoid using their NodeJS libraries wherever possible since they change / break too often. https://web3.storage/docs/concepts/car/#ipfs-car
Previously you could shove any data you want to an IPFS endpoint and it would kindly return the IPFS CID, now you need to generate the CID and some other file-specific info prior to uploading.
Thankfully getting data is still straightforward and can be requested anonymously from any number of IPFS gateways.
Happy to share NodeJS snippets if you want a primer since it's a bit tedious to work through their docs.
