Where are the devs at? Devzat!
Devzat is chat over SSH. Because there's SSH apps literally on all platforms, even your phone, you can connect to Devzat on any device!
Try it out:
ssh devzat.hackclub.com
If you're under a firewall, you can still join on port 443:
ssh devzat.hackclub.com -p 443
If you add this to ~/.ssh/config
:
Host chat
HostName devzat.hackclub.com
You'll be able to join with just:
ssh chat
We also have a Slack bridge! If you're on the Hack Club Slack, check out the #ssh-chat-bridge
channel!
Welcome to Devzat! Devzat is chat over SSH: github.com/quackduck/devzat
Because there's SSH apps on all platforms, even on mobile, you can join from anywhere.
Interesting features:
• Many, many commands. Check em out by using /commands.
• Built in Tic Tac Toe and Hangman! Run /tic or /hang <word>
• Markdown support! Tables, headers, italics and everything. Just use "\n" in place of newlines.
You can even send ascii art with code fences. Run /ascii-art to see an example.
• Emoji replacements 🔥 ! :rocket: => 🚀 (like on Slack and Discord)
• Code syntax highlighting. Use Markdown fences to send code. Run /example-code to see an example.
For replacing newlines, I often use bulkseotools.com/add-remove-line-breaks.php.
Made by Ishan Goel with feature ideas from friends.
