# NeoChat

NeoChat is a client for Matrix, the decentralized communication protocol
for instant
messaging. It is a fork of Spectral, using KDE frameworks, most notably
Kirigami,
KConfig and KI18n.

## Get it

A stable release [is available](https://apps.kde.org/en/neochat) for
download for Linux distributions.


Along with the stable release, a Flatpak version is available for the
nightly
version:

```
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub
https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists kdeapps --from
https://distribute.kde.org/kdeapps.flatpakrepo
flatpak install kdeapps org.kde.neochat
```

A nightly build is also available for Android in the [KDE nightly F-Droid
repo](https://community.kde.org/Android/FDroid)
and can also directly be downloaded from the [binary factory](
https://binary-factory.kde.org/view/Android/job/NeoChat_Nightly_android-arm64/
).

Nightly builds for [Windows](
https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/NeoChat_Nightly_win64/), [MacOS](
https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/NeoChat_Nightly_macos/) and [AppImages](
https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/NeoChat_Nightly_appimage/) can also be
downloaded from the [binary factory](
https://binary-factory.kde.org/search/?q=neochat).

## Features

* Sending messages
* Sending files from clipboard and filesystem
* Reply to message (right-click on a message to access menu)
* Start a private chat (but not encrypted)
* Show notifications, for the moment there is only a global switch
to disable it. We plan to implement the configuration part of the
specification soon.
* Autocompletion of usernames in chat
* Emoji picker
* Basic room setting page
* Send and accept invitations
* /rainbow <message> (very important)
* /me <message>

NeoChat is still missing a few features to become a full-featured
Matrix client (most notably encryption support and video chat support).
We welcome contributions in this direction.
