Files, folder-native chat, video meetings and fine-grained permissions — self-hosted on infrastructure you control, under AGPL-3.0.
Website · Documentation · Self-host · Discussions · X
Drumee is a complete team workspace — files, chat that lives inside the folder it is about, video meetings, and POSIX-style permissions — that runs on your own server. No per-seat lock-in, no third party holding your data.
It installs on a single machine with Docker, on bare-metal Debian, or on a Synology NAS.

Drumee is not a single binary — it is a set of services that install together. The repositories worth knowing:
| Repository | What it is |
|---|---|
| server-team | The workspace back-end: desk content, sharing, chat and meeting APIs |
| ui-team | The workspace front-end — the desk you actually see |
| server-core · server-essentials | Shared back-end runtime every Drumee service is built on |
| ui-core · ui-essentials | The client-side rendering engine and its shared library |
| schemas | Database schema and stored procedures |
| static | Fonts, icons and other static assets served to the client |
Everything else — installers, setup tooling, per-platform packaging — hangs off those. Browse all repositories.
Under the workspace sits an application platform: a built-in identity and access layer, a permissioned virtual filesystem, and a client-side JSON rendering engine — so an app built on Drumee ships without rebuilding auth, storage or a UI framework from scratch.
Start from the getting-started guides and the plugin documentation. The build and deployment source lives in drumee/debian.
