#### An signal client.

# Axolotl is a crossplattform signal client

## for the Ubuntu Phone and more

This is a Signal compatible client for Ubuntu Phone, Snap(Linux), Windows... written in Go.
It builds upon the [Go textsecure package](<https://github.com/nanu-c/textsecure/>) and a vuejs app that runs in a electron/qml WebEngineView container.

What works

---

* Phone registration
* Contact discovery
* Direct and group messages
* Photo, video, audio and contact attachments in both direct and group mode
* Preview for photo and audio attachments
* Storing conversations
* Encrypted message store
* Desktop client provisioning/syncing

What is missing

---

* Sending attachments is broken in snap due to apparmor restrictions
* Push notifications
* Most settings that are available in the Android app
* Encrypted phone calls

There are still bugs and UI/UX quirks.
