This is the code for the UI of the platform. There is an officially hosted version on dotsmesh.com, and you can also easily install it on your server.
Dots Mesh is a different kind of social platform. It's open and distributed by design. You can self-host your public social profile the same way you can self-host your website and email. There are two types of profiles (public and private), private messaging and secret groups. Learn more at about.dotsmesh.com.
