what it is

  • Chats with one person, groups and channels, with replies, edits, deletes, forwarding, reactions and search.
  • Groups have invite links and join requests, and a channel can be public, with its own address.
  • It shows who is typing, who is online and who has read a message.
  • There is no separate password: you sign in with meowerse accounts.
  • Messages are not end-to-end encrypted. They travel over HTTPS and are stored on the server, which is what lets history and search work on every device.

how it works

  • The web app is Astro with React islands, served by the same Cloudflare Worker as the API, which is an OpenID Connect client of meowerse accounts.
  • Each chat is a Durable Object: a new message is written to its SQLite storage and broadcast to everyone connected over WebSockets.
  • Chats and message history are also synced to D1, off the send path.
