Spacedeck - collaborative whiteboard

[jdaviescoates]

Spacedeck, a web based, real time, collaborative whiteboard application with rich media support

https://github.com/mntmn/spacedeck-open

Looks like it's just a simple Node app and so from what I understand that should make it easy to package for Cloudron

(Note this is also included in Nextcloud 21 too as https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/integration_whiteboard )

Doesn't look that bad to package and would definitely be cool. This + BBB server (to pair with Greenlight for some conference calls and whiteboard support) would be perfect.

Always good to have options.

@atrilahiji BBB has it's own collaborative whiteboard too although I've not really used it yet so not sure how good it is. Should remember to have a play on my https://meet.coop account

Nice, very happy to see this!
For now, many of my groups are working with miro and it causes me quite some pain, as it is so overcrowded with functionality. but it does works quite well as a rich media whiteboard.

hope that spacedeck can replace it at some point!

@jdaviescoates the BBB whiteboard is extremely limited, unfortunately, with less functionality than WBO. it is not possible to edit or scale text, once it is placed which makes it relatively useless in my opinion.

@kuchengrab I updated my Nextcloud to 21 the other day and had a little play with the spacedeck app in there, works pretty nicely

This one is quite easy to install and run. Some notes:

• Really needs node 10. Doesn't work with node 16.
• Many node modules are outdated and they need to be updated.
• The app is essentially the website - spacedeck.com
• To even register on the selfhosted instance, you have to provide the invite token . This is available in the config file. See https://github.com/spacedeck/spacedeck-open/issues/202
