Overview

AltEgo 2 is a libre, open-source alternative to Maltego — the industry-standard OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) tool. It provides a standalone environment for visualising and analysing data relationships, making intelligence gathering accessible without proprietary licensing.

Architecture

The application is built on a modern hybrid stack:

  • Runtime: Deno — a secure JavaScript/TypeScript runtime
  • Frontend: SvelteKit (Svelte 5) for reactive, component-based UI
  • Styling: TailwindCSS for rapid UI development
  • Desktop: NeutralinoJS for lightweight native desktop packaging

Goals

  • Provide a free and open alternative to commercial OSINT platforms
  • Enable graph-based data relationship visualisation
  • Support extensible data transforms and integrations
  • Run as a standalone desktop application or serverless deployment

Technical Details

  • Written entirely in TypeScript
  • Designed for both development mode and serverless production builds
  • Successor to the original AltEgo project, rebuilt with a modern tech stack

AltEgo 2 showcases my passion for open-source security tooling and modern full-stack development.
