Peer to peer workspace. Contribute to openconstruct/Peersuite development by creating an account on GitHub.

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.

    This is a cool idea. We’re not super happy with slack at work but I admit we haven’t given matrix a proper go yet. Wish we could stop for like a year just to evaluate the stack and the toolset. I kid. Sort of.

      I actually like Mattermost as a free slack alternative. Matrix is too complicated for normies and the encryption seems unnecessary on a local server.

        You could also consider Zulip they have been around for a while as the succesor of IRC but never arose in popularity. I like their concept of #tags for filtering messages inside a channel through #topics :)

          I’ve used that one as well and I’m not a fan. Its fine but it is super confusing to use.

        Not OP, but I’ll chime in my reason: History. Messages older than… 30-day are only accessible for a fee. Even when you star/ pin those messages. It’s so hateful.

          I see, yeah we pay for enterprise commercial licenses. Search is very good. Like in teams you can’t find shit. But slack can easily find anything

            Yeah in an enterprise setting Slack is excellent at being a communication platform, but teams with powerautomate is pretty damn powerful

              I have a hard time seeing how it competes with slacks millions of integrations. The only upside with teams is that it’s basically free with the rest of the office suite

                Having used the slack work flow builder compared to Powerautomate, it’s really no contest you can do so much more with PA if you’re in the ms ecosystem
