Abstract - When we wanted to buy a product like a watch on the internet, then suddenly we see ads related to the product on Facebook, Instagram, Google, etc this means they are accessing our every information even the messages we send to people on the Internet. There is a growing suspicion that the web is betraying and spying on us. As communication is an important part of an individual’s lifestyle, as each person communicates globally with the means of the internet every day and as in today’s world, different chat systems are almost working on centralized systems i.e., all the data is in a centralized server. Therefore, a major problem is if the central server fails then the whole network fails, and due to this major drawback is that there can be a loss of user’s data, information, and resources which is stored on the centralized server or even there can be a leak of user’s chat information that is stored on the server.

Decentralized is the way to resolve this problem, it’s an internet hosted via a peer-to-peer network. The information will be distributed and stored around the world on multiple devices like phones, laptops, and even smart appliances. To achieve this, we are using Gun.js, a decentralized graph database that is real-time has Low latency, and also has security, encryption, and authorization for the data.

Keyword- Gun.js, webRTC, node.js, Decentralized server, User Interface, Peer to peer network.
