## Project Overview
|
|
|
|
Irssi is a modular chat client written in C. It is primarily an IRC client, but also supports other protocols like ICB, SILC, XMPP, PSYC, and Quassel through third-party modules. It has a text-based user interface and is highly extensible with Perl scripts.

The project uses the Meson build system. The main dependencies are GLib, OpenSSL, and Perl.
