Lentil
A self-hostable, fault-tolerant chatroom backend built with Gleam and OTP for deploying custom chat applications.
Lentil is a self-hostable chatroom backend written in Gleam and OTP. The idea is to give a custom chat application a server to build on, whether it's an internal tool or a hackathon project.
The planned features include authentication, a telemetry dashboard, and PostgreSQL, with optional integrations for caching and event streaming. There is still work to do, and the project is currently dormant, but the code is there to explore.
