Kandan, an Open Source Alternative to HipChat
- l0c0b0x 14y agoSweet mother of moses... if this is at all close to the stackexchange/serverfault http://chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/127/the-comms-room http://chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/127/the-comms-room chat rooms, I'm all in! Seems like it at least, will have to give it a try.
- jrgifford 14y agoAs a SE mod (and Kandan dev member), it's similar. Definitely worth looking into (in my opinion). :)
- jawns 14y agoWhat's the login for the Kandan demo?
- caarlos0 14y agoYou can register a user to test it.
- hoogabooga 14y agoI got stumped on that one too. Just create a demo account and use that to login.
- jaredmcateer 14y agoI created demo1/testing if you don't want to bother signing up.
- shanselman 14y agoFWIW, there's a similar chat for ASP.NET/SignalR called Jabbr...does inline images, youtubes, etc https://github.com/davidfowl/JabbR https://github.com/davidfowl/JabbR
- thehodge 14y agoAre there Mobile apps that connect to this? I use the campfire app all the time
- jrgifford 14y agoNot yet!
- walke 14y agoGreat work! This is awesome!
- jacobsenscott 14y agoDoes it speak jabber?
- kilian 14y agoWe've been trying this out at my company, it's pretty full-featured already. Now if I could just get all my colleague's on board with the idea of a private company chat.
- jpkeisala 14y agoI recently installed Subway IRC on my server and loving it! https://github.com/thedjpetersen/subway https://github.com/thedjpetersen/subway If you look web-based IRC client. Its build on Node and Backbone.
- yesimahuman 14y agoLooks awesome! I really love HipChat, but I'd love to be able to really customize it. The local chat room becomes a pretty big part of the company and deserves to have all manner of culture added to it (logo, sounds, etc).
- andrewljohnson 14y agoGoes it have GitHub integration out of the box? That is the killer HipChat feature for me. I also like that HipChat will let me upload and link people to files.
- kingnothing 14y agoThere's a link for their Hubot integration in the README.
- gtmtg 14y agoBalloons.io (http://balloons.io/ http://balloons.io/) looks pretty similar, and it's open-source as well (https://github.com/gravityonmars/Balloons.IO https://github.com/gravityonmars/Balloons.IO).
- mehrzad 14y agoEven if a certain service has more features, I prefer to use the one based on open protocols, and in this case, IRC.
- sgdesign 14y agoHappy to see Kandan found its second wind! Thanks for all the work you're putting in :)
