Tiki Suite is mostly a server solution so users should be able to do almost everything via a modern browser. However, there are some times where the browser is not (yet) ideal, and client software should be recommended. Ideally, this client software is

• available in a portable mode (This means there is no "installation". The user can just use a USB key/portable disk.)
• Cross-platform
• FLOSS
• Can start up and log in when user boots up computer
• User enters credential in client app, and any relevant data is synched

We'll be looking for both desktop apps and mobile apps, with F-Droid.

To find out how components are selected, please see: selection criteria. If you have some ideas, please do share them.

Server

They are split on several servers to ease management (Kaltura especially)

Tiki Wiki CMS Groupware

Tiki is the FLOSS Web Application with the most built-in features and covers a very diverse set of Use Cases. The Tiki community is very active and there are two major versions per year. Please see: Roadmap

Typically, one Tiki instance outside the Firewall for public/customer/community website and one Tiki instance behind the Firewall for staff.

Syncthing

Syncthing -> For now, focusing on P2P file sync, but soon-ish, we'll add the ClearOS server as a central node.

Client

Adding a new client or re-installing a client should become quick & painless. So moving more towards cattle in the pets vs cattle analogy. Software should be easy to install / move / backup simply by moving the files, as we do with data files.

For Android, you can get apps from F-Droid.

Firefox

OpenVPN client
