Mattermost is an open source, self-hosted Slack-alternative that offers modern communication from behind your firewall. We built it so users have a practical option for avoiding lock-in from proprietary SaaS services. Mattermost is designed to be Slack-compatible (but not Slack-limited). That means we help users move over from Slack, but without limiting Mattermost to another product’s feature set.
Mattermost infrastructure is built for IT admins who want to quickly stand up a self-hosted alternative to Slack that’s easy to install, deploy, manage and scale. Mattermost includes a web-based System Console for managing instance level configuration. To simplify licensing, they have responded to community feedback and the compiled version of Mattermost v1.0 is now under the MIT open source license (instead of Apache-AGPL).

That’s why clipboard.js exists. This library relies on both Selection and execCommand APIs. The second one is supported in the following browsers: Chrome 42+, Firefox 41+, IE 9+, Opera 29+, Safari X.

CSSNano is a modular minifier that aims to utilise small modules from the PostCSS ecosystem, rather than being an all-encompassing module that may be difficult to contribute to. Because it is written on top of PostCSS, it is able to do more than simple whitespace transforms – including advanced optimisations such as custom identifier reduction, z-index rebasing, and adjacent selector merging.

Imagine a situation – your HTML markup renders at backend side, it contains some list of data. At one point you need to implement search by this list. It can be easily achieved by using Jets.js with a browser’s native search speed.
The main idea is not to affect attributes of each tag in the list while filtering. Instead apply dynamic CSS rule in only <style> tag and browser will decide which item of list to show or hide. Since it’s just CSS – Jets.js may be applied to any tag, whether it’s a table or UL, OL, DIV… Jets.js is a native CSS Search Engine.
