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/
Thanks for your response!
Instead of Discord another friend and I used Peersuite (via browser) for over 2h to hang out. I watched him play Oblivion for around 30 min. So far everything was stable and high qualitiy. Hadn't had any issues with the audio or the stream.
But we found another bug: if multiple people are working on columns or carts on the Kanban board, as soon as someone posts it, the textbox of the others get reset and the text they were working on is gone.
And we also had another thought: would it be possible to have the option of creating multiple audio channels like in Teamspeak or Discord? When playing team games, it is nice to have individual voice channels for each team. Another point would be user rights management, so basically what a user can or cannot do (maybe with a role-based approach: create roles like admin or read-only that you can assign to individual users), as well as the ability to block and unblock users (is this even possible with P2P?).
I'm planning to implement some sort of auth system. My current thoughts are host is auto admin, and they can pass admin. The overall issue with admin features, is if someone knows the room/password combo, theres no way to keep them out. Reloading the website or app will generate another peer ID.
I'll mess with the kanban stuff some.
