Features
- Multiple peers per room (limited only by the number of peer connections your browser supports).
- The number displayed at the top-right of the screen shows how many peers you are connected to. Your peers are the only ones who can see your message.
- Markdown support via
react-markdown
.- Includes support for syntax highlighting of code.
- Multiline message support (hold Shift and press Enter).
- Dark and light themes
Features
- Messages are never persisted to disk. When you leave a peer room, messages are cleared from memory and cannot be retrieved.
- Chitchatter is an entirely client-side communication app. It uses external general-purpose WebTorrent and STUN/TURN servers as for necessary communication, but there is no Chitchatter API server.
- No analytics, tracking, or telemetry.
- This is a community-driven, unfunded project that makes no money. This is necessary to prevent corporate influence from harming users.
