Chatto
Chatto is a fully-featured, privacy-first team and group chat application that is free and easy to self-host. It ships as a single binary with an embedded NATS/JetStream store (no external database) and supports voice/video calls and screensharing via an optional LiveKit server.

Installation
Default install:
1
bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVED/main/ct/chatto.sh)"
Notes
Create the first account with
cd /opt/chatto && ./chatto operator user create --login </code> (the operator API is enabled by default), or register via the web UI at http://IP:4000. Pick your own login: root, admin, superuser, op, operator and support are blocked by default and fail with 'this username is not available'.</div> </div> Review /opt/chatto_data/chatto.toml and configure SMTP credentials and a public webserver.url before using Chatto in production. All persistent data (embedded NATS/JetStream store and chatto.toml with its secrets) lives in /opt/chatto_data, kept outside the app directory so it survives updates. Include /opt/chatto_data in regular backups. Uploads go through the embedded NATS/JetStream store, which gets slow with many or large files. Testers report it becomes noticeably more usable with more CPU cores assigned to the container. Voice and video calls require a separately deployed LiveKit server; configure the [livekit] section in chatto.toml to enable them.## Web Interface## Links - [Official Website](https://chatto.run) - [Documentation](https://docs.chatto.run) ---
