Element X Launch
summary
Element X is a full rewrite of the mobile clients released as the recommended app, built on a shared Rust SDK with iOS using SwiftUI and Android using Jetpack Compose, and shipping embedded Element Call with picture‑in‑picture. It uses simplified Sliding Sync for fast room lists, CI with GitHub Actions and Exco Cloud deploys, and a heavy test suite — snapshot, UI and integration tests — yielding 82% test coverage. Core messaging, account creation and most UX parity are live; threads, spaces and some media features remain.
