| 12 ## About | |
| 13 | |
| 14 Libervia Desktop (Kivy) is a Desktop/Android frontend for the [Libervia | |
| 15 project](https://libervia.org). This version serves as an alternative desktop frontend, | |
| 16 built using the [Kivy](https://kivy.org/) framework, alongside the main Qt-based frontend. | |
| 17 It provides a native graphical interface optimized for touch-screen capabilities when | |
| 18 available and includes a split ability inspired by Blender. Although the frontend is | |
| 19 actively developed with a focus on GNU/Linux platforms, plans are underway to extend | |
| 20 support to other systems. An Android port is also in the early stages of development. | |
| 21 | |
| 22 ### Features | |
| 23 | |
| 24 - **Chat**: Supports text-based conversations with end-to-end encryption. | |
| 25 - **File Sharing**: Offers the ability to share files, including peer-to-peer directory | |
| 26 sharing. | |
| 27 - **Remote Control**: Implements XMPP Ad-Hoc commands, featuring a specialized mode for | |
| 28 controlling media players via icon-based UI. | |
| 29 - **Contact Management**: Basic functionality for managing your contacts. | |
| 30 - **Blogging**: Supports basic blogging features. | |
| 31 - **Settings Management**: Allows users to adjust various settings of Libervia. | |
| 32 - **Split Screen**: Provides the capability to split the screen by dragging and dropping | |
| 33 borders, enabling simultaneous view of multiple widgets. | |
| 34 - **Multiple Windows**: On desktop environments, users can open another window, useful for | |
| 35 multi-screen setups. | |
| 36 - 🚧 **Audio/Video Calls** (WIP): One-to-one audio and video calling features are under | |
| 37 development and will be available in future releases. | |
| 38 | |
| 39 Due to its modular architecture, the frontend is built to be customizable. Some features | |
| 40 available in other Libervia frontends (like calendars) are not yet implemented here. | |
