Description

XMPP (Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol) is an open, decentralized communication protocol, and Prosody is one of the most popular XMPP servers. Prosody is written in Lua, resource-efficient, and easy to configure. XMPP offers end-to-end encryption via OMEMO, group chats (MUC), file sharing, and voice/video calls via Jingle. The federated network enables communication across server boundaries, similar to email.
