## About
|
|
|
|
Libervia is a unique XMPP client based on a daemon/frontends architecture. It supports
|
|
multi-frontends (desktop, web, console interface, CLI, etc.) and provides a plethora of
|
|
multi-purpose tools such as instant messaging, microblogging, photo albums, calendar
|
|
events, file sharing, A/V calls, and state-of-the-art end-to-end encryption.
|
|
|
|
Embedded within our DNA is a strong commitment to ethics. Our social contract provides
|
|
insight into these principles - refer to `CONTRAT_SOCIAL` or `CONTRAT_SOCIAL_en`.
|
|
|
|
This repository contains the "backend" of Libervia—the heart of the software. To use it,
|
|
you will need to install one or more frontends:
|
|
|
|
- [Libervia Web](https://repos.goffi.org/libervia-web/): Our flagship frontend, offering a
|
|
potent, customizable social network for a broad spectrum of users—families, friends,
|
|
groups, associations, public services, companies, and more.
|
|
- [Libervia Desktop](https://repos.goffi.org/libervia-desktop/): Integrated with your
|
|
desktop, this frontend is under continual development. The existing
|
|
[Kivy](https://kivy.org/)-based version includes a prototype Android version, with an
|
|
upcoming iteration to be based on Qt.
|
|
- Libervia CLI: Bundled with Libervia Backend, our CLI is a true standout—one of the most
|
|
powerful XMPP CLIs out there. It's the go-to tool for quick tasks or crafting automation
|
|
scripts.
|
|
- Libervia TUI: Perfect for terminal enthusiasts or headless server operations, our TUI is
|
|
included with Libervia Backend.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Libervia can also function as an XMPP server component or a "generic" plugin. Currently,
|
|
we offer two components:
|
|
|
|
- An advanced file sharing component supporting [HTTP File
|
|
Upload](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0363.html), [Jingle File
|
|
Transfer](https://xmpp.org/extensions), file deletion, public link, access permission,
|
|
quotas, etc.
|
|
- An XMPP <=> ActivityPub Gateway, enabling users to interact with ActivityPub content
|
|
(from platforms like Mastodon, Pleroma, PeerTube, Mobilizon, etc.) as if they were XMPP
|
|
blogs or private messages, and vice versa.
|
|
|
