Whatsapp Clone... With P2P Messaging Without Installation or Registration
https://positive-intentions.com
This is intended to introduce a new paradigm in client-side managed secure cryptography. We can avoid registration of any sort. A fairly unique offering for a messaging app.
No need for things like phone numbers, email or registering to any app stores. There are no databases. Allowing users to send E2EE messages; no cloud, no trace.
Features:
- PWA
- P2P
- End to end encryption
- Signal protocol
- Post-Quantum cryptography
- Multimedia
- File transfer
- Video calls
- No registration
- No installation
- No database
- TURN server
I started off with an open source version here: https://github.com/positive-intentions/chat
MVP Demo: https://chat.positive-intentions.com
The open source version is largely created manually (without AI agents). I am a software developer and creating webapps is my profession. I created it open source because it helps to be able to discuss details online. I think the core-concepts around client-side managed cryptography is demonstrated, but unfortunately open source isnt sustainable. So its unfortunate i have to consider introducing close-source components into the project (, so that i can maintain a competative advantage).
Components now close source:
- UI component library: https://ui.positive-intentions.com
- P2P framework: https://p2p.positive-intentions.com
- Frontend: https://glitr.positive-intentions.com
I still keep some components open source for its importance in transparancy.
- Cryptography module - https://cryptography.positive-intentions.com
- Signal protocol - https://signal.positive-intentions.com
The close-source version of the app isnt finished enough to compare to existing tools like Simplex, Signal and WhatsApp. The goal is for it to be at least as secure as the Signal messaging app with their Signal protocol.
Take a look at some of the technical docs which ive updated to answer questions i frequently recieve in previous posts.

The optimistic long-term goal (if its even possible), is to create the "worlds most secure messaging app". If you really want to see how to achieve that goal, you can take a look at the more comprehensive docs here: https://positive-intentions.com/docs/technical
