Orbit
A distributed, serverless, peer-to-peer chat application on IPFS.
If you're here, you're probably looking for:
- orbit-db - The decentralized databases project
- orbit-web - The current repository behind Orbit Chat, a p2p chat running on orbitdb.
No work is currently being done in this repository.
Try the web app at https://orbit.chat
NOTE! Orbit is still more or less experimental. It means Orbit is currently not secure, APIs will change and clients can break over time. If you come across problems, it would help greatly to open issues so that we can fix them as quickly as possible.
Clients
Browsers
Orbit chat application for the browsers.
Desktops
A desktop version of the Orbit chat application that can be run as a stand-alone app in OSX and Linux. We're currently working on Windows support.
Terminal
A prototype of a terminal client.
Core Library
orbit-core
Orbit is intended to be embeddable in applications. orbit-core is a JavaScript implementation which can be used in Node.js, Browser and Electron applications and on websites.
orbit-db
A serverless, p2p database built on IPFS. Orbit uses orbit-db to have a database for each channel in the chat network.
js-ipfs
A new peer-to-peer hypermedia protocol. Orbit uses IPFS as its data storage and libp2p to handle all the p2p networking.
