Ask HN: Favorite Pairing App?

3•ctkhn•3mo ago

Been looking for a solution for some volunteer work. I used Tuple at a previous job and I wanted to find a low-cost or self-hosted equivalent - NOT a full video conferencing app. I really liked the focus on audio and screen sharing that Tuple had, but after some github and reddit searches I can't find anything that is currently open and self hosted. Does anyone here have something they recommend?

What is pairing and what is Tuple?

Pair programming - I just want to share my screen and audio with a teammate, so a full video meeting software is over the top bloat. And this https://tuple.app/ is tuple, previous company gave us subscriptions to use and I was a huge fan of it.

With a buddy of mine we have built Hopp, which is an oss pair programming app, https://github.com/gethopp/hopp. Feel free to pass by our discord server if you want help with self hosting.

That's exactly what I'm looking for, thank you!
