The application is a total rewrite of [Element iOS](https://github.com/element-hq/element-ios) using the [Matrix Rust SDK](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-rust-sdk) underneath and targeting devices running iOS 17+.
Element X leverages the [Matrix Rust SDK](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-rust-sdk) through an FFI layer exposed as a [swift package](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-rust-components-swift) that the final client can directly import and use. We're doing this as a way to share code between platforms, with [Element X Android](https://github.com/element-hq/element-x-android) using the same SDK.
Please refer to the [setting up a development environment](CONTRIBUTING.md#setting-up-a-development-environment) section from the [contribution guide](CONTRIBUTING.md).
If after your research you still have a question, ask at [#element-x-ios:matrix.org](https://matrix.to/#/#element-x-ios:matrix.org). Otherwise feel free to create a GitHub issue if you encounter a bug or a crash, by explaining clearly in detail what happened. You can also perform bug reporting (Rageshake) from the Element application by going to the application settings. This is especially recommended when you encounter a crash.
