Building from Source

Server

go build -o chatserver.exe -ldflags "-s -w -X main.version=1.0.0" .

Client (Tauri v2)

cd Client/tauri-client
npm install
npm run tauri build

The installer is output to Client/tauri-client/src-tauri/target/release/bundle/nsis/.

Architecture

OwnCord consists of a Go server and a Tauri v2 desktop client. The server handles all business logic, storage, and real-time communication. Clients connect over WebSocket for chat events, REST for history and uploads, and WebRTC for voice/video.
