Riot (formerly known as Vector) is a Matrix web client built using the [Matrix
React SDK](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk).
Riot is officially supported on the web in the last 2 major versions of Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. For Riot on Desktop (electron),
only the officially published app is supported. Other browsers and packages may work, however official support is not provided.
For accessing Riot on an Android or iOS device, check out [riot-android](https://github.com/vector-im/riot-android)
and [riot-ios](https://github.com/vector-im/riot-ios) - riot-web does not support mobile devices.

======================
Riot has several tiers of support for different environments:
* Supported
* Definition: Issues **actively triaged**, regressions **block** the release
* Last 2 major versions of Chrome, Firefox, and Safari
* Latest release of official Riot Desktop app on macOS, Windows, and Linux versions that are actively supported by the OS vendor and receive security updates
* Experimental
* Definition: Issues **accepted**, regressions **do not block** the release
* Riot as an installed PWA via current stable version of Chrome, Firefox, and Safari
* Mobile web for current stable version of Chrome, Firefox, and Safari on Android, iOS, and iPadOS
* Not supported
* Definition: Issues only affecting unsupported environments are **closed**
