Technology plays a crucial role in transforming public safety, bringing significant changes to our lives. When combined with the right tools, technology can even save them. That’s the story behind Bridge 4 Public Safety, the app launched with funding from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and built within Rocket.Chat.

To make the Rocket.Chat experience even more pleasant and smooth for our users, the development efforts of version 3.14.0 were focused on design tweaks and bug fixes. The sizes of the graphic elements present in the last releases have been improved, alongside some new security fixes and improvements in the usability of our new Teams feature. We believe that this will allow a wider and more correct use of Rocket.Chat.

You need at least 30GB of hard disk for this project. Of course, you’ll also need an internet connection. We start with a freshly installed Ubuntu 20.04. You don’t need to install the desktop environment.

The original open web was born out of academia. It was designed so that scientists at universities and research institutes around the world could share knowledge between each other in a consistent way using an open standard. Today, the digital landscape has changed. It is largely dominated by centralised commercially-driven tech giants. They have changed the nature of the open web by developing their own proprietary systems, retaining power and data.

We’re excited to announce our partnership with Canonical to build a Mattermost Operator using the Juju Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM), making it easy to install, integrate and upgrade Mattermost.
