# Spreed video calls

**Video- & audio-conferencing app for Nextcloud**

![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nextcloud/spreed/master/docs/spreed-in-action.png)

## Why is this so awesome?

* :busts_in_silhouette: **Private, group and public calls!** Just invite somebody, a whole group or send a public link to invite to a call.
* :computer: **Screen sharing!** Share your screen with participants of your call. You just need the [Firefox add-on](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nextcloud-video-calls/) or [Chrome extension](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/screensharing-for-nextclo/kepnpjhambipllfmgmbapncekcmabkol).
* :rocket: **Integration with other Nextcloud apps!** Currently Contacts and users – more to come.
* :see_no_evil: **We’re not reinventing the wheel!** Based on the great [simpleWebRTC](https://simplewebrtc.com/) library.

And in the works for the [coming versions](https://github.com/nextcloud/spreed/milestones/):
* :speech_balloon: [Chat integration](https://github.com/nextcloud/spreed/issues/35)
* :raising_hand: [Federated calls](https://github.com/nextcloud/spreed/issues/21), to call people on other Nextclouds

If you set your `user.name` and `user.email` git configs, you can sign your

`git ci` and the commit will be signed.
