Berty
Berty is a secure peer-to-peer messaging app
Berty is an open, secure, offline-first, peer-to-peer and zero trust messaging app. Berty is an encrypted and offline peer-to-peer messenger with no central server. Connect with or without an internet connection, message for free, and avoid surveillance and censorship. Berty is fresh off the development line and hasn’t been audited yet. Please keep this in mind when exchanging data. In some countries, even a lol or a like can get you sent to jail. Berty is end-to-end encrypted - not even our developers could access your data, let alone corporations or governments. Just like blockchain technologies, Berty doesn’t pass your data through central servers - the place where internet service providers, hackers, and governments can intercept your data. Instead, Berty’s network is distributed, based on P2P direct messaging. Berty couldn’t care less about who you are. You don’t need to provide your real name, an email, or a date of birth. You don’t even need a SIM card! -

Session for iOS
A Decentralized, Onion Routed, Private Messenger
Session iOS is the native iPhone and iPad client for the Session secure messaging ecosystem, engineered to bring private, anonymous communication to Apple’s mobile platforms without relying on phone numbers or email addresses. The app supports encrypted one-on-one and group chats, voice messages, file and image sharing, and threaded conversations, all delivered over a decentralized onion network designed to conceal metadata such as sender identity, message timing, and network path. On iOS, Session integrates with Apple’s notification and background execution frameworks so that messages arrive reliably while preserving privacy protections, and it supports Face ID/Touch ID unlock to guard access to local message storage. Its interface follows iOS conventions for navigation, attachments, and user interaction, making secure messaging feel natural to Apple users while maintaining rigorous cryptographic standards. -

On iOS, Element handles user identity, room membership, and end-to-end encryption with strong key management, allowing users to hold secure conversations that only intended participants can read, even across federated instances. The interface adheres to modern iOS paradigms, offering intuitive navigation, notifications, threaded replies, message reactions, customizable themes, and support for rich media rendering. -

libsignal
Home to the Signal Protocol and other cryptographic primitives
libsignal is the foundational cryptographic library that implements the Signal Protocol and other essential primitives used across the official Signal clients and servers, enabling secure end-to-end encrypted communication. Written primarily in Rust with bindings and APIs surfaced for Java, Swift, and TypeScript, this library encapsulates critical algorithms like the Double Ratchet, prekey mechanisms, secure key storage, and zero-knowledge group primitives, along with additional utilities for media handling and device key transfer. libsignal abstracts complex cryptographic constructions into reusable components that client applications can adopt to ensure forward secrecy, authentication, and integrity without re-implementing core security logic. Although its primary use is within the Signal ecosystem, its documentation and exposed interfaces allow developers to explore modern secure messaging primitives or use pieces of the protocol in experimental applications. -

Chat/Messaging App Light and Dark Theme
Flutter UI project for building a messaging app interface
Chat Messaging App Light and Dark Theme is a Flutter UI project for building a messaging app interface with both light and dark modes. It includes multiple screens that cover the core visual flow of a chat application, starting with a welcome screen and moving into authentication and conversation views. The project is intended as a design and implementation reference rather than a complete messaging backend. It demonstrates how Flutter layouts can be structured for chat lists, message screens, onboarding, sign-in, and sign-up experiences. The dual theme support makes it useful for learning how to design consistent interfaces across different visual modes. It is best suited for Flutter learners and mobile developers who need a clean UI base for chat-style apps. -

Interactable
Experimental implementation of high performance interactable views
This is an experimental implementation of a declarative API for handling fluid user interactions with views at 60 FPS in React Native. Here are some example use-cases for views that users can interact with. Swipeable card (a la Google Now) springing into place unless swiped away with enough force. Drawer snapping between closed and open with buttons appearing gradually as it's being dragged. Collapsible header that snaps to a smaller size as the content below is being scrolled. Chat heads (a la Facebook Messenger) that can be dragged around but snap to corners of the screen. All of these use-cases have views that continuously interact with the user's gestures. These interactions are normally physical in nature, having properties like springiness, friction, elasticity and damping. In order to feel natural on a touch device they need to run at 60 FPS. -
