 ## What is Kubo?
 
-Kubo (go-ipfs) the earliest and most widely used implementation of IPFS.
+Kubo was the first is the most widely used IPFS implementation today. Implementing the *Interplanetary Filesystem* - the Web3 standard and contender to replace https. Thus powered by IPLD's data models and the libp2p for network communication. Kubo is written in Go.
+
+Featureset
+- Runs an IPFS-Node as a network service
+- [Command Line Interface](https://docs.ipfs.tech/reference/kubo/cli/) to IPFS-Nodes
+- Local [Web2-to-Web3 HTTP Gateway functionality](https://github.com/ipfs/specs/tree/main/http-gateways#readme) 
+- HTTP RPC API (`/api/v0`) to access and control the daemon
+- IPFS's internal Webgui can be used to manage the Kubo nodes
 
-It includes:
-- an IPFS daemon server
-- extensive [command line tooling](https://docs.ipfs.tech/reference/kubo/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
+### Other implementations
