Overview

Element is a messaging and collaboration app built on Matrix, the open, decentralised communication standard. This repository is the web and desktop client. Organisations, including governments, use Element to run their own secure communications instead of relying on a single vendor.

What it does well

Element works in recent versions of Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari, and as a desktop app for macOS, Windows and Linux. Because it's built on Matrix, you can host your own server and still talk to people on other servers and organisations. Element also offers installations for air-gapped and isolated networks.

Why it’s in the collection

Element is the leading app for Matrix, giving teams Slack-style chat they can own and federate. It's AGPL-licensed.
