A simple ruby decentralized p2p messenger with E2EE (end-to-end-encryption, that means nobody can read your messages without your private-key so then keep it secret!, for more information about how does rsa or public-key encryption works click here)

it need more improvements, but it does the job.

first of all you'll need to install ruby

Add this to your Gemfile

gem 'vesta-chat'

and then execute

$ bundle install

or install it yourself as

$ gem install vesta-chat --no-ri --no-rdoc

it's not too complicated.

Running a node:

$ vesta '[your_ip]' [your_port]
# eg.
$ vesta 'http://localhost' 1000
# and you're ready to open this (http://localhost:1000) page on your browser.  

Connecting to a node:

$ vesta '[your_ip]' [your_port] '[peer_ip]' [peer_port]
# eg.
$ vesta 'http://localhost' 1000 'http://localhost' 2000
# and you're ready to open this (http://localhost:1000) page on your browser.
