I literally just came from the Slack site to HN wondering if there was an opensource/selfhosting version of something like Slack. Well I guess that question is answered.
There is also Kandan App. https://github.com/kandanapp/kandan

#22Neat. What's the purpose of the "slug" when creating the room? I was expecting it to be the URL slug, such as http://localhost:5000/#!/room/my-room (and quickly noticed hyphens in the slug name caused a validation error...).
Also try typing in #ROOMNAME in the textbox! You can link to rooms like that.

#23I was about to say "come on, nothing beats IRC", but then I remembered how I always wanted IRC to have LDAP, XMPP, and a REST API. So... can I connect with my IRC client?

#24I just deployed to Heroku with the button and the home page gives me a "Moved temporarily". Later a 503 application error.

Same here. Looks like "TypeError: secret required" from the heroku logs.

#28Earlier quoted context omitted.
There is also Kandan App. https://github.com/kandanapp/kandan
Is Kandan still actively developed? Doesn't seem like there's been anything new for a couple of years.

#30When I was experimenting with websockets, I wanted to make a simple chat app that integrates with Github projects. Of course, not nearly as feature rich, but just an experiment to learn.
