Dynamo is an open-source initiative focused on reviving Skype, as Microsoft plans to shut it down in May 2025. Our mission is to restore Skype's core functionalities and, if needed, create a modern, sustainable alternative.
- Reviving Skype → Restoring the core features of Skype to maintain its legacy.
- Reverse Engineering → Analyzing Skype’s protocols to recreate its essential functionality.
- Custom Servers → Developing alternative authentication and communication servers.
- Open-Source Alternative → Building a new platform inspired by Skype’s best features, with a focus on community and collaboration.
Dynamo thrives on collaboration. We invite developers, security researchers, testers, and technical writers to contribute in the following areas:
- Investigating Skype’s protocols
- Developing and improving core features
- Writing documentation and guides
- Reporting bugs and issues
Follow the progress of Dynamo, engage in discussions, and help us ensure that Skype lives on.
We look forward to your contributions to help us achieve this goal.
