# chat_proto
![State](https://img.shields.io/badge/State-WIP-red)


This repository contains the core implementation of the $CHAT_PROTO types. 

To make them easy to use, implementations in Rust and Nim are provided developers can focus on building. 


## Structure

- **proto:** Protobuf definitions for Core and Conversation types
- **nim:**  nimble package for generated types in nim
- **rust:** cargo crate for generated types in rust
- **specs:** current home of the specifications - these will likely be moved out of the repo. They are currently in lockstep with the type definitions which minimizes desync.
