Overview
What I built & why
Decentralized social and chat platform built on the XMPP protocol. Posts, chats, communities, and end-to-end encryption with OMEMO.
Federates with any XMPP server; no central authority required.
Highlights
Key deliverables
- ✓ XMPP federation
- ✓ OMEMO E2EE
- ✓ Group chats + communities
- ✓ No central server
- ✓ Self-host first
Process
Challenge & solution
The challenge
A vendor lock-in clause forced a tight ninety-day migration window with zero room for service interruption.
The solution
Modeled the entire pipeline as a single source of truth, then layered real-time UI on top so every team saw the same status.
