Talk

"Chat, video & audio-conferencing using WebRTC

  • 💬 Chat integration! Nextcloud Talk comes with a simple text chat. Allowing you to share files from your Nextcloud and mentioning other participants.
  • 👥 Private, group, public and password protected calls! Just invite somebody, a whole group or send a public link to invite to a call.
  • 💻 Screen sharing! Share your screen with participants of your call. You just need to use Firefox version 52 (or newer), latest Edge or Chrome 49 (or newer) with this Chrome extension.
  • 🚀 Integration with other Nextcloud apps like Files, Contacts and Deck. More to come.

And in the works for the coming versions:

  • ✋ Federated calls, to call people on other Nextclouds"


Basically, a nice self hosted video chat solution. Video calls, screen sharing, audio calls, etc.

The whole thing runs on peerJS, so there's nothing happening server-side other than establishing the handshakes... Consequently, the platform will choke a bit as you add more and more users to a single call...
