# IPFS Gateway

An _IPFS gateway_ provides an HTTP-based service that allows HTTP-incompatible browsers, tools and software to access IPFS content. For example, some browsers or tools like [Curl](https://curl.haxx.se/) or [Wget](https://www.gnu.org/software/wget/) don't support IPFS natively and cannot access to IPFS content using canonical addressing like `ipfs://{CID}/{optional path to resource}`. While tools like [IPFS Companion](https://github.com/ipfs-shipyard/ipfs-companion) add browser support for native IPFS URLs, this is not always an option. As such, there are multiple gateway types and <VueCustomTooltip label="A way to address data by its hash rather than its location (IPs)." underlined multiline>gateway providers</VueCustomTooltip> available so that applications of all kinds can interface with IPFS using HTTP.
