# PeerTube

> Federated video streaming platform using ActivityPub and P2P

PeerTube is an open-source, decentralized video platform built on ActivityPub and WebRTC P2P delivery. It allows users and communities to host, publish, and federate video content across independent servers without relying on centralized streaming giants. Administrators can run an instance using standard Linux server packages or Docker containers.
