[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/mujx/nheko.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/mujx/nheko) [![Build status](https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/07qrqbfylsg4hw2h/branch/master?svg=true)](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/mujx/nheko/branch/master)

The motivation behind the project is to provide a native desktop app for [Matrix] that
feels more like a mainstream chat app ([Riot], Telegram etc) and less like an IRC client.

### Features

Most of the features you'd expect from a chat application are missing right now
but you can of course receive and send messages in the rooms that you are a member of.

### Requirements

Building instructions for OSX and Windows will be added.

#### Linux

- Qt5
- CMake v3.1 or greater
- GCC that supports C++11.

##### Arch Linux

```bash
$ sudo pacman -S qt5-base cmake gcc
```

### Building

Run

```bash
cmake -H. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release # Default is Debug.
make -C build
```

The `nheko` binary will be located in the `build` directory.

### Contributing

Any kind of contribution to the project is greatly appreciated. You are also
encouraged to open feature request issues.

### Screens

Here is a screen shot to get a feel for the UI, but things will probably change.
