SimpleX Chat is a private messaging platform that uses temporary anonymous identifiers to eliminate the need for long-term user identification. This app deploys a self-hosted SMP relay server used to pass messages in the SimpleX network. It also installs the XFTP server to support XFTP file transfer protocol.

Once the SimpleX Server is up and running you can display your SMP and XFTP connection strings with the following command while logged into the server:
docker-compose --project-directory /etc/docker/compose/simplex logs grep 'Server address' | uniqTo start using your server, you will need to configure it to work with your SimpleX app. Available apps can be downloaded here: Download SimpleX apps
