Upcoming apps

@fbartels Thanks for the breakdown, I'll give it a whirl!

Been playing with Kopano Meet on a restricted basis on one of my Cloudron instances. Honestly, it's a good, simple solution for certain purposes, but it seems to lack a lot of the features of a full-on BBB/Jitsi installation, for which reason I would still prefer either of those to be available. Perhaps there's room for both to exist on the platform (I think so! They service different niches well), but for my particular desires/plans, the feature set just isn't quite there.

What’s the status on Jitsi currently? For my usecases I find it powerful to use the apps that do one or a tightly scoped things well rather than installing suite type apps.

So with Riot out the gates and the Matrix app soon to follow, the logical next step for me in that setup is to bring a Jitsi app in under the same roof (Riot+Matrix uses Jitsi under the hood).

@yusf But doesn't Matrix have it's own video calling features?

[yusf]

@murgero For 1on1 calls yes, for group calls no.

But since its not easy to reliable run a turn service (at best two ip addresses, should be reachable on port 443 to not be blocked on public wifi, ..) we are offering it as a service for our customers.

I've not looked at this yet but just found this tutorial about how to set up a turn server to work with nextcloud talk

Any news on bitwarden?

[jimcavoli]

@Trankery You can follow along for the latest on that app via its thread in the App Wishlist - https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/1082/bitwarden-self-hosted-password-manager

For the coming weeks, we are going to focus on getting some new apps packaged. The list is:

• OnlyOffice
• Bitwarden - @Felix and @iamthefij have done much of the heavy lifting, we just have to get it across the line.
• OpenVPN - We will add an admin interface that let's the admins configure some popular vpn settings.
• BigBlueButton or Jitsi (we will evaluate which works well for conferencing. We have used both and they both work well but BBB might win). If you have any thoughts here, please leave a comment.
• Development apps - basically provide a git push workflow for hosting custom nodejs/php apps (and make it work so that they can be mixed with various caches and databases).

If we should prioritize something else, please let us know! But the above should keep us occupied this month.

I was just reading this thread and saw this post. Look at all those good things, all accomplished and completed long ago. Well done on work accomplished!
