# Element

Element (formerly known as Vector and Riot) is a Matrix web & desktop client built using the [Matrix
JS SDK](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-js-sdk).

# Supported Environments

Element has several tiers of support for different environments:

- Supported
    - Definition:
        - Issues **actively triaged**, regressions **block** the release
    - Last 2 major versions of Chrome, Firefox, and Edge on desktop OSes
    - Last 2 versions of Safari
    - Latest release of official Element Desktop app on desktop OSes
    - Desktop OSes means macOS, Windows, and Linux versions for desktop devices
      that are actively supported by the OS vendor and receive security updates
- Best effort
    - Definition:
        - Issues **accepted**, regressions **do not block** the release
        - The wider Element Products (including Element Call and the Enterprise Server Suite) do still not officially support these browsers.
        - The element web project and its contributors should keep the client functioning and gracefully degrade where other sibling features (E.g. Element Call) may not function.
    - Last major release of Firefox ESR and Chrome/Edge Extended Stable
- Community Supported
    - Definition:
        - Issues **accepted**, regressions **do not block** the release
        - Community contributions are welcome to support these issues
    - Mobile web for current stable version of Chrome, Firefox, and Safari on Android, iOS, and iPadOS
- Not supported
    - Definition: Issues only affecting unsupported environments are **closed**
    - Everything else

The period of support for these tiers should last until the releases specified above, plus 1 app release cycle(2 weeks). In the case of Firefox ESR this is extended further to allow it land in Debian Stable.

For accessing Element on an Android or iOS device, we currently recommend the
native apps [element-x-android](https://github.com/element-hq/element-x-android)
and [element-x-ios](https://github.com/element-hq/element-x-ios).

# Getting Started

The easiest way to test Element is to just use the hosted copy at <https://app.element.io>.
The `develop` branch is continuously deployed to <https://develop.element.io>
for those who like living dangerously.

To host your own instance of Element see [Installing Element Web](docs/install.md).

To install Element as a desktop application, see [Running as a desktop app](#running-as-a-desktop-app) below.

You can read more about the structure [here](docs/monorepo.md).

# Element Web

# Running as a Desktop app

Element can also be run as a desktop app, wrapped in Electron. You can download a
pre-built version from <https://element.io/get-started> or, if you prefer,
build it yourself.

To build it yourself, follow the instructions at <https://github.com/element-hq/element-web/tree/develop/apps/desktop>.

Many thanks to @aviraldg for the initial work on the Electron integration.

The [configuration docs](docs/config.md#desktop-app-configuration) show how to override the desktop app's default settings if desired.

# Development
