LimoX is my own [XMPP][1] client. The goal is to implement a client with these
attributes:

- Linux support
- high performance
- mobile UI
- basic features first following the [Kano model][2]
- good quality

If this goal is reached it would be possible to turn LimoX into a generic
multi-platform XMPP client. Adding support for browsers with [WebAssembly][7]
should be a way to get fast to every platform. Support for Windows, MacOS,
Android and iOS is at least provided by all used dependencies.

LimoX is now written in the [Go language][5] and uses [Gio][6] for the user
interface. Have a look at the [README][3] and [ROADMAP][4] files for details
especially about the current state.
