Description:
Tox is a decentralized, secure messenger with audio and video chat capabilities. You can see it as an alternative to Skype. This is only the core library. To use it, you have to install a client, like e.g. net-im/toxic, net-im/qTox or net-im/uTox. Tox isn't complete yet, but we encourage you to contribute to help make us awesome!
