+# LimoX
+
+The Linux on mobile XMPP (LimoX) client. It should be fast, compliant and
+usable on mobile linux devices like smartphones or tablets.
+
+Also mind the [project page][2] and my [packaging repository][3] for Arch Linux
+with support for LimoX.
+
+
+## Building and dependencies
+
+Install these build dependencies:
+
+- meson
+- ninja
+- gcc
