Hi ! looks nice ! Just out of curiosity, what is in your backlog for future releases ?

@erwan_le_poder Hey! Thanks for asking! Are backlog is quite full actually. For "virtual offices", we are working on: - A desktop application. We already have a PWA available but a desktop app would be even better. - Integration with 3rd party tools. The first tool will be Google Calendar. You will be able to schedule meetings in WorkAdventure (rather than in Google Meet) - Improved iframes. Currently, you can open one iframe next to WorkAdventure. In the future, you will be able to open many (to juggle between a whiteboard, a note taking up and a Jitsi meeting for instance) - A better chat system (possibly with integrations in Slack) For "events": we are working on improving the administrator experience in large meetings. More generally, we are very proud to have "scriptable maps" (where you can add special behaviour in Javascript in any map). I think we are the only virtual world solution that has this capability. We are going to work a lot on this "scripting API" to keep improving it a lot. Since WorkAdventure is an open-source product at the core, our backlog is public. Don't hesitate to check it out: https://workadventutre.notion.si...

Hey Adventurers! 👋 Thank you @benln for the hunt! I’m David, co-founder and CTO of WorkAdventure. Today we’re thrilled to launch WorkAdventure on @producthunt 🚀. Workplaces have considerably evolved since the 1950s alongside behaviors, attitudes, and technology. WorkAdventure was conceived and developed for the new normal world which, we believe, will be more hybrid. Hybrid because workers will be on-site as well as remote. Hybrid because teams will be more distributed. Hybrid because you will need more freedom in your professional life! Ladies and Gentlemen, let us introduce WorkAdventure, your virtual place for business collaboration 🤓 Our ultimate mission is to make modern workers feel empowered again while interacting with hybrid teams and hybrid places. 🪄 Our fairy tale Grégoire, Arthmaël, Grégory and I started the adventure in March 2020 because we were feeling extremely isolated from our regular social interactions as a team. We imagined a virtual world, presented in the form of a 16-bit video game, where we could all connect for meetings, workshops, conferences, team building activities, and even for few drinks after work 🍻 The master word is "spontaneity". Want to ask something to a colleague? No need to send a Google Meet invite over Slack! Simply get up, walk up to your colleague's office, ask your question and go back to your desk. As easy as in real life! Basically, we imagined a fun yet serious place where people connect regardless of where they are (open your possibilities: why not working from a paradise island then? 🌴) BOOM. 💥 WorkAdventure was born 💥 🦸‍️ A powerful product People matter, and we believe in creative collaboration 📝. That’s why our platform is open-source and completely customizable. You can recreate your corporate culture online, make your onboardings easier or organize your events! Bring back serendipity and the camaraderie of the coffee breaks to your teams! We’ve also made sure to build a user-friendly platform that can integrate your favorite tools: Slack, Google Workplace, Miro, Trello, Zoom … Tell us what you need, and we’ll make it happen 🚀 🧐 How does WorkAdventure work? It’s actually pretty simple: 🗺 Build your map as an internal team building activity (fun times guaranteed) choose one of ours or ask us to design you a custom one (our skilled designers are the best👊) 📣 Invite your teammates and start our “Onboard your team” process to make sure everyone gets the best of your new virtual office or to rock your next digital event 💾 Install the WorkAdventure PWA on your desk & mobile phone and launch the app every morning, choose your avatar (you can even adopt a companion 🐈), move with your keyboard arrows and start connecting to people! 💻 An open-source product We believe in an open world! The WorkAdventure source code is available on Github: https://github.com/thecodingmach.... You are a developer? Don't hesitate and join our community! We’d love to hear your feedback! We’ll be in our office all day so please come by, and let’s grab a coffee together ☕️: https://play.staging.workadventu... David and the whole WorkAdventure team ❤️ NB: 🎉 To celebrate our lunch, you get a 3 months FREE trial with all "pro" features for your next virtual office or event.

Hi! Great service for the future of business collaboration. I’ve seen that the solution can be self-hosted. Do you have any details about this process? Thanks and congratulations for your work!
David Négrier

@thibbal Hey Thibault! Yes, the solution is open-source so you can self-host it yourself. We provide an easy installation based on Docker containers. You can check the documentation at: https://github.com/thecodingmach... WorkAdventure is rather easy to install, but in order to have a fully working environment that can bypass most firewalls, you will also need to install a TURN server, and of course a Jitsi server for hosting meetings. In case you are having troubles setting up the environment, don't hesitate to open an issue on Github. And we of course have the SAAS version available (with a generous free plan :) )
