# element-x-android
2 years ago
ElementX Android is a [Matrix](https://matrix.org/) Android Client provided by [Element](https://element.io/). This app is currently in a pre-alpha release stage with only basic functionality.
The application is a total rewrite of [Element-Android](https://github.com/vector-im/element-android) using the [Matrix Rust SDK](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-rust-sdk) underneath and targeting devices running Android 6+. The UI layer is written using Jetpack compose.

## Rust SDK
ElementX leverages the [Matrix Rust SDK](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-rust-sdk) through an FFI layer that the final client can directly import and use.
We're doing this as a way to share code between platforms and while we've seen promising results it's still in the experimental stage and bound to change.
## Status
This project is in work in progress. The app does not cover yet all functionalities we expect.
