# Cwtch - UI This codebase provides a graphical user interface for Desktop and Android for [Cwtch: Privacy Preserving Infrastructure for Asynchronous, Decentralized and Metadata Resistant Applications](https://git.openprivacy.ca/cwtch.im/cwtch) # Security **Cwtch is an experimental concept and prototype. We do not recommend you use Cwtch today if you require secure communication.** At least, not yet. If you discover a security issue, please log an issue above, or email team@cwtch.im. # Compiling & Running This code relies on [therecipe/qt](https://github.com/therecipe/qt) before getting started consult the [Installation](https://github.com/therecipe/qt/wiki/Installation) and [Getting Started](https://github.com/therecipe/qt/wiki/Getting-Started) documentation to get that up and running. It will make building this much easier. ## Desktop qtdeploy build desktop ./deploy/linux/ui.sh -local -debug 2>&1 | grep -v 'Detected anchors on an item that is managed by a layout.' The -local and -debug flags are helpful when developing. ## Android A arm-pie version of tor like [tor-0.3.5.7-armeabi-v7a](https://git.openprivacy.ca/openprivacy/buildfiles/src/master/tor/tor-0.3.5.7-armeabi-v7a.so) is required to be placed in `android/libs/armeabi-v7a` with the name `libtor.so` qtdeploy -docker build android adb install deploy/android/build-debug.apk
