You’ll have a chance to work on Zbay, an innovative desktop app which is an attempt to build a secure, decentralized substitute for team chat tools like Slack, Discord, or Keybase.
The goal is to achieve a similar level of usability and reliability to centralized tools, while reducing or outright eliminating risks from phishing attacks, malware attacks, and large-scale data breaches.
Zbay also integrates the privacy-focused cryptocurrency Zcash. Users can send and receive Zcash, register names for users and communities on the Zcash blockchain, and—potentially, in the future—purchase additional services such as persistent encrypted storage.
Zbay is using Electron framework. This implies NodeJS for the OS-side of it. For the frontend-side we are using a combination of React + Redux + Material UI. We have recently made a push to move our codebase from Javascript to Typescript.
Nowadays we are also doing a lot of work involving Tor v3 Onion Services and Libp2p.
Zbay supports Linux, macOS and Windows. It is cross-compiled to each of these platforms using Github Actions.
Zbay is open source. You can find the code repository here.
