--= Establishing a Matrix Chat =
++== What is Matrix? ==
--There are two Matrix-Servers:
--   1 matrix.tum.de (LRZ-ID)
--   1 matrix.cit.tum.de (ITO-ID)
++[[Matrix>>https://matrix.org/]] is a chat system very similar to E-Mail, but instantaneous and secure.
--You can log in any of them with the appropriate ID and password.
--The Matrix Server is available as web but also as client. It can be found as web interface under the following links:
--
--[[matrix.cit.tum.de (ITO- ID)>>url:https://matrix.cit.tum.de/#/welcome]]
--
--[[matrix.tum.de (LRZ-TUM-ID)>>url:https://matrix.tum.de/#/welcome]]
--
--
--[[ Here>>url:https://element.io/get-started]] you can find installation for IOS, Android, Mac, Linux and Windows.

++You can create[[ end-to-end encrypted>>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-to-end_encryption]] **personal or group chats** that are not stored and **not dependent on a central authority** like most other tools (MS Teams, WhatsApp, Zoom, ...).
++All your messages are **synced** between all your devices  - web clients, desktop clients, smartphone apps.
++For additional security, encryption keys of contacts can be verified and then stored as trusted.
++== Home Server ==
++Messages are stored and synced between home servers.
++A user typically has **one account** on one homeserver. You can use any homeserver of your choice - however [[ITO>>doc:CIT.ITO.WebHome]] offers two homeservers:
--[[image:tumaccountlogineng2n.png]]
++* **matrix.cit.tum.de** for CIT accounts: @username:cit.tum.de
++* **matrix.tum.de** for TUM accounts: @username:tum.de
--=== Log in to the web interface with cit.tum login data ===
++You only need to use one account and can communicate with any other homeserver of the world.

++If you don't have a CIT or TUM account, you can use a public homeserver instead:

++* matrix.org: [[https:~~/~~/app.element.io/#/register>>https://app.element.io/#/register]]

++* or, host your own homeserver :)
--(% class="box" %)

++To use your home server, you have to **use a client** that communicates with your homeserver.

++== Clients ==
++[[Element>>https://element.io/]] is our client of choice.
++* [[Desktop Client>>https://element.io/download]] (easily provided in [[your Linux distribution of choice>>https://repology.org/project/element-desktop]])
