## About

[Kaidan][kaidan-website] is a simple, user-friendly and modern chat client. It

uses the open communication protocol [XMPP (Jabber)][xmpp]. The user interface

makes use of [Kirigami][kirigami-website] and [QtQuick][qtquick], while the

back-end of Kaidan is entirely written in C++ using [Qt][qt] and the Qt-based

XMPP library [QXmpp][qxmpp].

Kaidan runs on mobile and desktop systems including Linux, Windows, macOS,

Android, Plasma Mobile and Ubuntu Touch.

Unfortunately, we are not able to provide builds for all platforms at the moment

due to little developer resources.

Kaidan does *not* have all basic features yet and has still some stability

issues. Do not expect it to be as good as the currently dominating instant

messaging clients.

If you are interested in the technical features Kaidan supports, you can have a

look at our [overview of XEPs and RFCs][xeps-rfcs].

## Using and Building Kaidan

Downloadable builds are available on [Kaidan's download page][downloads].

Instructions for using ready-made (nightly / stable) builds and for building

Kaidan yourself can be found in our [Wiki][wiki].

 * [Qt][qt-build-sources] (Core Concurrent Qml Quick Svg Sql QuickControls2 Xml Multimedia Positioning Location) (>= 5.14.0)
