Welcome to the libaxolotl-windows wiki!

Thanks for your interest in this project. Here are some of the biggest needs I have right now.

• NuGet guru
  • I don't know how to package this in NuGet, and haven't had the time to learn how. If someone could run with that and make this available via NuGet for various Windows Universal apps, that would be very helpful. Packaging with NuGet would let this be more modular. We could keep Curve 25519's C++ WinRT component in a separate repository from libaxolotl and release independently.
• UX guru
  • You won't hurt my feelings if you want to start on the mobile app itself in a second repository while I finish up the libaxolotl-windows library. Please read up on the design philosophies of Open Whisper Systems, especially by absorbing their blog posts to understand what kind of tool we're aiming for here. https://whispersystems.org/blog/
• Windows push notifications
  • At some point, we need to tackle push notifications with this project. That means some modifications to https://github.com/WhisperSystems/TextSecure-Server are going to be necessary. We need to get a certificate setup, figure out how to build and run this server locally for development and testing, etc, etc. This would be another great aspect of the project that someone could run with independently.

##What is being worked on? Curve25519 and the axolotl protocol are the main focus right now. After that, unless someone else decides to start, the mobile app will be worked on. Once it is up and going in Beta, push notifications and TextSecure-server modifications will be dealt with.
