Chitchatter
Chitchatter is a free (as in both price and freedom) communication tool. It is designed with security and privacy in mind. To that end, it is:
- Fully open source
- Peer-to-peer
- Whenever possible, otherwise Open Relay is used to ensure reliable peer connection
- Encrypted (via WebRTC)
- Serverless
- Ephemeral
- Message content is never persisted to disk
- Decentralized
- There is no API server. All that's required for Chitchatter to function is availability of GitHub for static assets, and public WebTorrent and relay servers for establishing communication.
Chitchatter was bootstrapped with Create React App.
