    IPFS Desktop

    IPFS Desktop

    An unobtrusive and user-friendly desktop application for IPFS

    IPFS Desktop bundles an IPFS node, file manager, peer manager, and content explorer into a single, easy-to-use application. Use IPFS Desktop to get acquainted with IPFS without needing to touch the terminal — or, if you're already experienced, use the powerful menubar/taskbar shortcuts alongside the command line to make your IPFS workflow faster. If you already have an IPFS node on your computer, IPFS Desktop will act as a control panel and file browser for that node. If you don't have a node, it'll install one for you. And either way, IPFS Desktop will automatically check for updates. IPFS Desktop enables you to stop or restart your node straight from the IPFS logo menu in your OS menubar/system tray. For Mac and Windows users, IPFS Desktop can also be set to launch at system startup, ensuring that your node is running whenever your computer is on.

    Synapse

    Synapse

    Matrix reference homeserver

    Matrix is an ambitious new ecosystem for open federated Instant Messaging and VoIP. Everything in Matrix happens in a room. Rooms are distributed and do not exist on any single server. Rooms can be located using convenience aliases like #matrix:matrix.org or #test:localhost:8448. Synapse is currently in rapid development, but as of version 0.5 we believe it is sufficiently stable to be run as an internet-facing service for real usage! Create and manage fully distributed chat rooms with no single points of control or failure. Eventually-consistent cryptographically secure synchronization of room state across a global open network of federated servers and services. Send and receive extensible messages in a room with (optional) end-to-end encryption. Use 3rd Party IDs (3PIDs) such as email addresses, phone numbers, Facebook accounts to authenticate, identify and discover users on Matrix.

    Session Desktop

    Session Desktop

    A Decentralized, Onion Routed, Private Messenger

    Session Desktop is an open-source, privacy-focused messaging application that brings secure, decentralized communication to desktop environments such as Windows, macOS, and Linux, providing users with encrypted text, media, and group chats without requiring phone numbers or email addresses.

The desktop client pairs seamlessly with Session mobile apps but can also be used independently to communicate with Session contacts in a familiar desktop interface that supports a full keyboard, global notifications, drag-and-drop media sharing, and local file access. Session emphasizes zero-knowledge privacy, meaning that only the participants in a conversation can read the messages.
