helios.
the open source platform you can use to create decentralised social media apps and Social Network Services

welcome to helios. platform

helios. is a new platform that allows you to build your own decentralised social media apps for Android with multiple innovative components and social media services that besides allowing users to connect with people, stores, institutions, and even sensors according to their interests, location or availability, makes possible to give back the control to users of the ownership of their data and content.

What’s more from building decentralised apps by leveraging the components and services available, you can also develop new modules for adding new features to the platform and contribute to the strengthening of the European Social Media landscape!

Funded by the European Commission under the H2020 Programme, the helios project is investigating and developing multiple technologies to make this platform possible with novel concepts for social graph creation and management grounded in trust and transparency.

Join the helios.challenge

Would you be interested in testing helios components and modules to build your own Android-based social media app, or perhaps to develop novel decentralised features?

This is the perfect opportunity to do so!

Join us on a unique global challenge only for app developers, to use the components our project consortium has built and create their own apps or features! 

Based on Design Fiction methodology and Human-Centered design practice, we have defined a series of scenarios following the requirements, services, and technologies that social media users’ need nowadays. The inspirational Use Cases have served as the basis for the creation of Validation Apps which demonstrate the capabilities and robustness of the HELIOS Platform to build decentralised social media apps that address different purposes.

App developers can use HELIOS open-source platform for creating specific modules and features for social networks, as well as for building their own decentralised social media apps for Android. Join our community of developers and help us to redefine the future of social media!
