What is converge and does it work?

Converge is a decision-making tool built on Holochain that helps groups find agreement by working out differences on the basis of underlying criteria instead of whole solutions, and it is active: its repository was last pushed on 2026-09-08. We base this on the project's README, its 0.3.2 release notes and its repository metadata, read on 2026-09-13.

Converge is a tool to help groups make decisions with the highest level of convergence, or agreement. It is based loosely on the Convergent Facilitation process: groups find agreement by working out differences on the basis of underlying criteria rather than entire solutions. It is built on Holochain and maintained by lightningrodlabs, where the repository was last pushed on 2026-09-08.

The repository's manifests pin the Holochain development kit (hdk) at 0.6.0 and holochain_client at 0.20.0. The latest release, 0.3.2 from 2026-05-06, fixes the embedded view for deliberations, and the project is recorded as active.

Converge can be packaged as a web happ, `converge.webhapp`, that the Holochain Launcher installs; the census lists it as a moss-tool. Development and tests require the Holochain development environment, entered with `nix develop` followed by `npm install`.

How to get it

moss-tool

  1. Set up the Holochain development environment.
  2. From the repository root, run `nix develop` and then `npm install`.
  3. Run `npm run package` to produce `converge.webhapp` in the workdir.

Does converge run for you?

Say so, and the page counts it. A GitHub account older than six months is the proof; the maintainer cannot vote. Nothing here changes where a project appears in any list.
