Overview

Orthodox connect is an in-development platform for parishes, dioceses, and jurisdictions to securely communicate.

It includes a community portal, XMPP-based chat, group and community spaces, library, and online video conferencing. Private where required, and suitable for parish, monastery, diocesan, or local community use where authorised.

Planned capabilities

Clear tools for Orthodox community communication.

Meet and video path

Meeting and video integration where required.

Group spaces

Community spaces for parishes, monasteries, diocesan groups, or local Orthodox projects.

Repository

The source project is public on GitHub. Development details, deployment notes, and future issues should be handled there where appropriate.

Future integration with Orthodox Zone

Orthodox Zone can later link to public help pages, project notes, and user-facing explanations for Orthodox Connect without exposing private community spaces.
