Quiet is an alternative to team chat apps like Slack, Discord, and Element that does not require trusting a central server or running one's own. In Quiet, all data syncs directly between a team's devices over Tor with no server required.
Quiet is written (mostly) in TypeScript, with Electron and React Native frontends.
While apps like Slack, Discord, and Signal use central servers, Quiet syncs messages directly between a team's devices, over Tor, with no server required.
Each group of people (Quiet calls them "communities") gets their own insular network, so that data from one community never touches the devices of Quiet users in other communities. Not even in encrypted form!
Message syncing is taken care of by a project called OrbitDB, which works like a mashup of Git, a gossip protocol, and BitTorrent; it broadcasts new messages, syncs the latest messages, and fetches files. Syncing means that users typically receive all messages sent while they were offline.
Rather than fight with Converse.js webshit, this is a pre-built web page that implements a web-based XMPP client for you. Even OMEMO enabled.
A small but highly customisable site template, ideal for a project documentation homepage.
Might be addable to my website's theme.
A nice, retro-looking dashboard for organizing your environments. Instant local search, keyboard shortcuts, themable, customizable. YAML config file. Icons can be customized as well. Theoretically small enough to carry around on your mobile device. Uses yarn to install dependencies and compile. Themes can be switched out in realtime.
Reminds me a bit of GEOS or Workbench.
Serve with any web server; the Docker container uses nginx, but use whatever.
