DeltaChat/WebXDC
Portable private apps that can be shared in e.g. chat
Webxdc is a fresh and still evolving effort to explore "private apps", essentially 'portable' web apps through which users can interact in any number of ways outside of the traditional client-server paradigm, e.g. over E2EE chat. These mini-apps offer interesting interaction patterns -- without any dependency on centralised infrastructure, additional logins etc. It grew from Delta Chat, a highly innovative solution that uses secure email-based communication technology for social networking, protected with OpenPGP/Autocrypt.
The project will further develop the concept of Webxdc apps, and make it for instance possible for users to make data portable (which is currently not possible due to missing security controls for that).
