Spaces are where collaboration happens. Joining one puts you in a shared environment with other people — you can see what they’re working on, talk, chat, share files, and use apps together in real time. There’s no account to create, no invite link to manage, and no calendar event to schedule. Someone shares a code, you type it in, and you’re there.

​
Ways to join

1

Enter a space code

The most common path. Someone gives you a 6-character code (like ABC123), you type it into the join field, enter the password if there is one, and you’re in.
2

Browse public spaces

Open the space directory to see spaces that have been listed publicly. You can see the space name, participant count, and password requirements before joining.
3

Join a nearby space

If someone on your local network is hosting a space, it appears automatically through local discovery — no code needed. This works without an internet connection.
4

Rejoin a recent space

Spaces you’ve been in before are saved in your history. If the space is still active, rejoin with one click.

​
What happens when you join

1

You see who's there

The people panel shows everyone in the space and what app or tab they’re currently viewing.
2

You get the shared workspace

The space’s tabs — typically a Document and Whiteboard to start — load with their current state.
3

You can start communicating

Space chat is immediately available, and you can join voice with one click.
4

Pinned resources appear

Any apps or files pinned to the space are visible and ready to use.

​
Leaving and coming back

When you leave a space, the space keeps going — it’s , so it doesn’t depend on any one person. If the host leaves, a relay or another participant automatically takes over hosting. Spaces you’ve previously hosted or joined appear in your recent rooms list. If the space is still active (because a relay or peer took over), you can rejoin with one click. The system connects you to whoever is currently hosting, so the transition is seamless.
