nheko
The motivation behind the project is to provide a native desktop app for Matrix that feels more like a mainstream chat app (Riot, Telegram etc) and less like an IRC client.
Features
Most of the features you would expect from a chat application are missing right now but we are getting close to a more feature complete client. Specifically there is support for:
- Joining & leaving rooms
- Sending & receiving images and emoji.
- Typing notifications.
Installation
There are pre-built nigtly releases here for Linux (AppImage), Mac and Windows.
Arch Linux
pacaur -S nheko-git
Fedora
sudo dnf copr enable xvitaly/matrix
sudo dnf install nheko
Gentoo Linux
sudo layman -a matrix
sudo emerge -a nheko
Build Requirements
- Qt5 (5.7 or greater). Qt 5.7 adds support for color font rendering with Freetype, which is essential to properly support emoji.
- CMake 3.1 or greater.
- LMDB.
- A compiler that supports C++11.
- Clang 3.3 (or greater).
- GCC 4.8 (or greater).
Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S qt5-base qt5-tools cmake gcc fontconfig lmdb
Gentoo Linux
sudo emerge -a ">=dev-qt/qtgui-5.7.1" media-libs/fontconfig
Ubuntu (e.g 14.04)
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:beineri/opt-qt58-trusty
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:george-edison55/cmake-3.x
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install qt58base qt58tools cmake liblmdb-dev
OSX (Xcode 8 or later)
brew update
brew install qt5 lmdb
N.B. you will need to pass -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/opt/qt5
to cmake to point it at your qt5 install (tweaking the path as needed)
Building
Clone the repo with its submodules
git clone --recursive https://github.com/mujx/nheko
or
git clone https://github.com/mujx/nheko
cd nheko
git submodule update --init
and then use the following
cmake -H. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release # Default is Debug.
make -C build
The nheko
binary will be located in the build
directory.
Nix
Download the repo as mentioned above and run
nix-build
in the project folder. This will output a binary to result/bin/nheko
.
You can also install nheko by running nix-env -f . -i

Any kind of contribution to the project is greatly appreciated. You are also encouraged to open feature request issues.
Screens
Here is a screen shot to get a feel for the UI, but things will probably change.
