A peer-to-peer chat application built using IPFS, Tauri, JavaScript, and HTML.
Disco Chat is meant to be a fun, easy-to-use chat application, but it's also meant to help show developers how to build applications like it. It's based upon native-ipfs-building-blox, which is a great kit for getting started on building desktop IPFS applications using HTML/Javascript (Rust too if you like!).
A couple code snippets of note:
If you run into any problems please reach out to our community, or open an issue.
Check out our Releases page for pre-built binaries for Linux, Windows, and MacOS.
git clone https://github.com/TheDiscordian/disco-chat.git
cd disco-chatcargo install tauri-clinpm install
npm run build./fetch-kubo.shIf it doesn't work for you refer to the Windows instructions for how to obtain and rename the kubo binary.
Grab the appropriate kubo binary. Ensure you extract the package, pulling the ipfs binary out. Then move it to bin/ naming it according to this guide's parameters (final name will be something like kubo-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.exe, probably, check here if you can't figure out your triple).
