--= Establishing a Matrix Chat =
++== What is Matrix? ==
++[[Matrix>>https://matrix.org/]] is a chat system very similar to E-Mail, but instantaneous and secure.
--== What is matrix? ==
++* You need to register an account at a provider (e.g. tum.de, or lmu.de)
++* Whatever your provider is, you can talk to people using other providers
++** (((
++For example {{code language="none"}}@someprofessor:tum.de{{/code}} can communicate with {{code language="none"}}@someresearcher:lmu.de{{/code}}!
++)))
++* (((
++In the same way you can use Outlook or Thunderbird with the same email account, you can use different Matrix apps for the same Matrix account!
++Several apps exist, but we're going to go with "[[Element>>https://element.io/]]" for the sake of simplicity, as it's among the most fully-featured Matrix apps on the market.
++)))
++So People have their **account on one server** but can write messages **to anyone on other servers**.

--Matrix is a chat system very similar to E-Mail. People have their account on one server but can write messages to anyone on other servers. For example @someprofessor:tum.de can communicate with @someresearcher:lmu.de.
++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.

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:
--Download and sign in to the desktop version of Matrix chat
++* **matrix.cit.tum.de** for CIT accounts: @username:cit.tum.de
++* **matrix.tum.de** for TUM accounts: @username:tum.de
++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:
--[[ Here>>url:https://element.io/get-started]] you can find installation for IOS, Android, Mac, Linux and Windows.
++* matrix.org: [[https:~~/~~/app.element.io/#/register>>https://app.element.io/#/register]]
++* or any other homeserver [[https:~~/~~/joinmatrix.org/servers/>>https://joinmatrix.org/servers/]]
++* or, host your own homeserver :)
++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. You can use it
--You can sign in to the desktop version or web interface.
++* [[on your desktop>>https://element.io/download]]
++* as web client:
++** matrix.cit.tum.de
++** matrix.tum.de
++* [[on your smartphone>>https://element.io/download]]
