This repository contains all of the source code you need to start your own server and/or build your own iOS, Android, Web, or Desktop applications.

It is very easy to implement your own.

Building a mobile messaging application is quite a complex procedure that requires a lot of preparation, e.g.: have developer accounts with Google and Apple, have SSL certificates for your servers, integrate the server with various services like SMS gate, push systems, etc.

For more info, you can read the server installation manual. After installing the server, you can start building the apps.

Keep in touch with the Actor community in its group chat.

It is very hard to find any open source messaging servers that have awesome mobile apps and are good for everyday use, so we started working on Actor. At some point, we realized that the quality of our code was good enough to share it with the open source community.
