Peers
Welcome to the "Peers" page of positive-intentions! Here, we'll dive into how you can connect and interact with peers using our app's innovative features.
Connecting to a Peer
Connecting with peers is at the heart of our chat app experience. We've designed a seamless process that ensures your privacy and security while enabling meaningful connections:
-
PeerJS and WebRTC: positive-intentions utilizes PeerJS and WebRTC technologies to facilitate peer-to-peer connections. PeerJS simplifies the process of establishing connections between users' browsers, while WebRTC enables real-time communication.
-
Connection Data Sharing: You have the flexibility to share your connection data with peers using various methods like other chat apps, email, SMS, and more. The choice is yours!
-
QR Code Connectivity: For added convenience, our app can generate, display, and scan QR codes for peer connections. This quick method ensures a hassle-free connection setup.
-
Trust and Security: Always exercise caution when sharing your connection data. Only share it with individuals you trust to maintain a secure communication environment.
Peer Profile
Getting to know your peers is essential for effective communication. Here's what you can expect from a peer's profile:
-
Default Display Name: When you connect with a peer, their default display name is shown to you. This helps you recognize your peers in conversations.
-
Custom Display Name: You have the option to personalize the display name of your peers on your instance of the app. This customized name will be displayed for you during interactions.
Privacy and Security
We prioritize your privacy and security in every peer connection:
-
Secure First-Time Connection: The first-time connection to a peer is a critical step for security. During this initial contact, our app establishes public-key and symmetric-key encryption. This ensures that your future communications are protected and that you're indeed communicating with the intended user.
-
Safety Tips: When interacting with peers, remember to be cautious and only connect with individuals you trust. Our app offers a secure environment, but your diligence in choosing whom you communicate with is equally important.
