About Galene
Galène (or Galene) is a videoconference server (an “SFU”) that is easy to deploy and that requires moderate server resources. It was originally designed for lectures, conferences and student tutorials, but is also useful for traditional meetings.
Galène has been used in production at two major universities (Université de Paris and Sorbonne Université) for lectures, practicals, seminars, and for staff meetings. It has been used to host two conferences (SOCS'2020 and JFLA'2021).
Galène's server side is implemented in Go, and uses the Pion implementation of WebRTC. The server is regularly tested on Linux/amd64 and Linux/arm64; it has also been shown to run on Linux/armv7 and Linux/mips (OpenWRT), and even on Windows. It should in principle be portable to other systems, including Mac OS X. The default client is implemented in Javascript, and works on recent versions of all major web browsers, both on desktop and mobile (but see the FAQ for caveats with specific browsers).
