About okTurtles/group-income
Group Income is a decentralized financial application that enables voluntary basic income sharing among friends and communities through end-to-end encryption. The project implements a peer-to-peer safety net where groups can pool resources and distribute income without relying on centralized intermediaries, combining privacy protections with accessible user experience.
The application is built with JavaScript and Node.js, featuring a modern web frontend alongside backend infrastructure for managing encrypted transactions and group coordination. Development uses standard tools like Grunt for task automation and includes comprehensive testing via Cypress and BrowserStack. The project prioritizes accessibility compliance with WCAG 2.0 Level AA standards and maintains detailed documentation for contributors across frontend concepts, style guidelines, and information flow architecture.
The project targets both individual contributors and groups interested in experimenting with alternative economic models. It's actively maintained with an emphasis on security through optional Docker containerization, collaborative development practices using GitHub project boards, and clear contribution guidelines. The codebase is licensed under AGPL-3.0 and supported by the okTurtles Foundation.
