Hello everyone, about a month ago I open-sourced my web app Peersuite. It's peer-to-peer instead of having servers, and all data is encrypted in transit with AES-GCM algorithm.

Features:

  • chat with channels, images, PMs, and file send ( no size limit)

  • audio/video conferencing No hard cap on users but since it's a mesh network it would degrade at over 15 users

  • Screensharing tab, window, or entire screen

  • whiteboard for diagrams/drawing

  • group document creation/editing

  • kanban board for task management

    Since there is no server, you can download a workspace to an encrypted file to restore later, this saves you chats, documents, everything. This software is new, and still undergoing heavy development, but I think it's a valid choice over closed source solutions with no encryption.

Currently you can use it on the web at https://peersuite.space/ Download desktop versions from github Download docker image from https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/openconstruct/peersuite

You can also install it as a PWA on desktop or mobile. I have an android port in the works, If anyone would like to test let that me know, and I'll PM you for your email.

I've also done some initial work on a nodejs server so that you can keep a workspace open 24/7 effectively having a server.

Super happy to get any kind of feedback, positive or negative.

Tried this with some friends and the audio quality is great, screensharing is great. Generally working very well. Honestly the only thing preventing me from switching people over all the way more is the lacking a persistent session. In all regards though, great work! I'll be following development closely, just make sure you don't burn yourself out with scope creep, because I know everyone and their dog has ideas for you. Thanks for making this cool foss available to us.

Oh, I just saw your post about testing android- I'd love to if you need testers, though I will say I'm running grapheneos, not stock

If you want more testers, definitely open to it. Same with testing out the server if you're interested in that. Just a homelab so can't really do big tests but I've been interested in alternatives to Discord now that they're clearly enshittifying
