7 -[[Matrix>>https://matrix.org/]] is a chat system very similar to E-Mail, but instantaneous and secure.
8 8  
9 -* You need to register an account at a provider (e.g. tum.de, or lmu.de)
10 -* Whatever your provider is, you can talk to people using other providers
11 -** (((
12 -For example {{code language="none"}}@someprofessor:tum.de{{/code}} can communicate with {{code language="none"}}@someresearcher:lmu.de{{/code}}!
13 -)))
14 -* (((
15 -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!
16 -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.
17 -)))
9 +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.
18 18  
19 -So People have their **account on one server** but can write messages **to anyone on other servers**.
20 -
11 +You can create end-to-end encrypted personal or group chats that are not stored and 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.

22 -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, ...).
23 -All your messages are **synced** between all your devices - web clients, desktop clients, smartphone apps.
24 -For additional security, encryption keys of contacts can be verified and then stored as trusted.
13 +You can use either the desktop version or the web interface of matrix.

26 -== Home Server ==
15 +==Sign in==
27 27  
28 -Messages are stored and synced between home servers.
17 +=== Sign in to the desktop version ===
29 29  
30 -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:
31 31  
32 -* **matrix.cit.tum.de** for CIT accounts: @username:cit.tum.de
33 -* **matrix.tum.de** for TUM accounts: @username:tum.de
20 +[[ Here>>url:https://element.io/get-started]] you can find installation for IOS, Android, Mac, Linux and Windows.
34 34  
35 -You only need to use one account and can communicate with any other homeserver of the world.
22 +[[image:matrixdownload.png||height="284" width="575"]]
36 36  
37 -If you don't have a CIT or TUM account, you can use a public homeserver instead:
38 38  
39 -* matrix.org: [[https:~~/~~/app.element.io/#/register>>https://app.element.io/#/register]]
40 -* or any other homeserver [[https:~~/~~/joinmatrix.org/servers/>>https://joinmatrix.org/servers/]]
41 -* or, host your own homeserver :)
42 42  
43 -To use your home server, you have to **use a client** that communicates with your homeserver.
26 +If you have a CIT or TUM Account, you can sign in wit your login data.

45 -== Clients ==
