* Introduce a `TimelineItemThreadSummary` object to hold details about threads starting from that particular item This patch introduces a thread summary object that will be available on main timeline messages that are the root for a given thread. It currently provides the latest message content and sender for that thread but it will grow to provide info on the number of replies, unreads etc. It also add a new UI component called `TimelineThreadSummaryView` that makes use of this data and is in turn used by the bubbled styler to render it in the timeline. The rest of the PR is about refactoring on the `RoomTimelineItemFactory` so that replies and thread summaries use similar paths and builders. * Add a feature flag for threads * Address PR comments * Converge on single implementation for message previews
Element X iOS
Element X iOS is a Matrix iOS Client provided by Element.
The application is a total rewrite of Element iOS using the Matrix Rust SDK underneath and targeting devices running iOS 17+.
Rust SDK
Element X leverages the Matrix Rust SDK through an FFI layer exposed as a swift package 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 using the same SDK.
Status
This project is in an early rollout & migration phase.
