Hugin is a messaging service where messages are relayed by Kryptokrona nodes. Your messages are secured with industry leading encryption so that only you and your chat partner have the possibility to read them. The purpose is not to gather any personal information about the users, unlike most apps and social media.

Hugin also packs some powerful decentralized P2P encrypted features like video, voice, screen sharing and filesharing. This is possible because we've managed to compress the requests to establish a connection (called SDP) with WebRTC from over 2000 characters to less than 200 – which means that a connection through Hugin is possible!

Build

To build a target we have the following options:

CI/CD

This project is automatically built, tested and deployed using GitHub Actions. We have two pipelines:

• Main Pipeline - This is the pipeline that runs the code merged into our main branch.
• Pull Request Pipeline - This is the pipeline that runs each time a pull request come in so the reviewer has some help evaluating if the code is good enough to be merged.

The Main Pipeline do everything the Pull Request Pipeline does in addition to building and publishing artifacts of different architectures and OS.
