Jitsi app

{% hint style="success" %} This app can also work in a fully air-gapped environment. If you are an Enterprise customer running an air-gapped workspace, follow the Air-gapped App installation guide and continue with the configuration instructions below. {% endhint %}

Jitsi is a collection of open Source projects which provide state-of-the-art video conferencing capabilities that are secure, easy to use, and easy to self-host. The Jitsi Meet project (Jitsi Video Bridge) is a tried and true bandwidth-efficient WebRTC-compatible SFU (server-based) solution from our gracious FOSS partner, Jitsi. Rocket.Chat users can now enjoy reliable and robust group video, audio, and screen-sharing experiences through Jitsi.
