Landscape apps

Groups

Start, host, and cultivate communities. Own your communications, organize your resources, and share documents. Groups is a decentralized platform that integrates with Talk, Notebook, and Gallery for a full, communal suite of tools.

Talk

Send encrypted direct messages to one or many friends. Talk is a simple chat tool for catching up, getting work done, and everything in between.

Notebook

Notebook is a standard short and long form text editor. Within Groups, you can use Notebook to write, edit, and publish text.

Gallery

Gallery is a versatile repository for collective knowledge and references you want to share or remember. Within Groups, you can use Gallery to collect links, images, media, and even random musings.


Developer documentation

This project uses the formal comment spec for all Hoon code to ensure compatibility with doccords.

Additionally, detailed documentation is available in the Docs Landscape app if you have both Docs and Groups installed on a running Urbit ship.

Visit this repository's wiki for an overview of how to use Landscape and its apps.

Integrating with Groups agents

The %groups desk provides several simple agents with discrete concerns. This list may expand over time.

  • %groups - The organizational substrate for constructing, joining, finding, and managing groups (different than the in-group activity of chatting, writing, or collecting)
  • %groups-ui - Optimized scries for the Groups UI
  • %chat - 1:1 and multi-DM capabilities for Talk and Chat channels in Groups
  • %diary - Notebook channels in Groups
  • %heap - Gallery channels in Groups
  • %notify - Hooks for iOS push notifications
  • %grouper - Handler for Lure invitiations

All actions are performed with pokes. See the on-ship developer documentation for more details.

Use of Landscape agents

At the moment, Groups and Talk make use of %settings, %storage, %hark, and %contacts agents in the %landscape desk.
