The Manifest

Browser-Only Double-Encrypted P2P Sharing & Chat

What it does

The Manifest is a browser-only tool for sharing files and chatting privately. No servers, no accounts, no trace at all. Files stream peer-to-peer via WebRTC with double AES-256 encryption. Close the tab and it all disappears. Drag & drop any files (no size limit), pause/resume, live encrypted chat with reactions & replies, QR code, mobile friendly. Self-host optional. 100% open source – no tracking, no backend. Demo: https://the-manifest-portal.vercel.app GitHub: https://github.com/iTroy0

    This is a project I made to learn more about crypto. I've also written a [post](https://vaktibabat.github.io/posts/ecurvechat/) that explains all the crypto concepts and algorithms used in the project, and how I implemented them. I'd be very glad for any feedback about both the code and the post :)

    Tt – P2P terminal sharing over WebRTCJan 2026 · ▲13

    Made this to use my laptop terminal session on mobile without data going through a server. tt start -p mypassword → get a URL (qrcode) → open in browser → enter password → connected. Direct webrtc datachannel between your machine and browser. Signaling server is a cloudflare worker, exchanges ~2KB of sdp/ice metadata then gets out of the way. Password never transmitted - argon2id derives 256-bit key locally on both ends. All terminal i/o gets nacl secretbox encryption before hitting the datachannel. double encrypted with dtls underneath but I wanted the relay to see nothing useful…

    With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
