+## [15.0.0](https://github.com/w3s-project/w3up/compare/upload-client-v14.1.1...upload-client-v15.0.0) (2024-05-15)

+
+### Features
+
+* generate sharded DAG index on client and invoke w `index/add` ([#1451](https://github.com/w3s-project/w3up/issues/1451)) ([a6d9026](https://github.com/w3s-project/w3up/commit/a6d9026536e60c0ce93b613acc6e337f2a21aeb2))
