Oragono logo

Oragono is a modern, experimental IRC server written in Go. It’s designed to be simple to setup and use, and to provide the majority of features that IRC users expect today.

It includes features such as UTF-8 nicks and channel names, client accounts and SASL, and other assorted IRCv3 support.

Oragono is a fork of the Ergonomadic IRC daemon <3

Also see the mammon IRC daemon for a similar project written in Python instead.

Go Report Card

This project adheres to Semantic Versioning. For the purposes of versioning, we consider the “public API” to refer to the configuration files, CLI interface and database format.

  • automated client connection limits
  • on-the-fly updating server config and TLS certificates (rehashing)
  • client accounts and SASL
  • passwords stored with bcrypt (client account passwords also salted)
