Hey everyone.

I make Peersuite, an opensource free communication platform.

It’s private by default, there’s no sign-in or email collection.

It’s peer-to-peer, there’s no server, after discovery you are connected directly to your friends my AES-GCN encrypted WebRTC channels. It forms a mesh and identifies superpeers. Because there is no server, in order to save your data between sessions, you can download your workspace into a password encrypted file. Happy to answer any questions.

FEATURES:

  • chat with images, PMs, channels, and file send
  • group audio/video calling
  • screensharing
  • kanban board
  • whiteboard for diagrams/flowchartswith PNG export
  • collaborative document editing with formatted PDF export

The best way for self hosting is docker, its on dockerhub as openconstruct/peersuite. You can also download desktop versions from the github or use on the web at https://peersuite.space/

    It’s html and javascript, the release comes with loose chromium files, ffmpeg binary and a 190MB executable. The link typo hasn’t been fixed in hours, they don’t link to the github, they misuse terminology, etc. and it’s version 0.3.

    That’s a no from me.

      Whoa, hey, they’re not paid on-call. Give it a few days.

      That’s fair, the project is about a month old, the electron releases will get an installer for some platforms.

        Yeah it’s an early version and I have no doubt that you guys will make it a lot neater, and it seems like a nice project. I just think it breaks several basic rules of privacy and security oriented programming, which is why I don’t think it’s a good fit for this community just yet.

        You should try out something that utilizes the normal system webview instead of electron that just bundles chromium.

        Check out tauri

          Tauri webview doesn’t support WebRTC, would have preferred that. Using system webview would be super iffy because of WebRTC support.
