From time to time, general information on Rocket.Chat, such as maintenance work and software updates, is announced here. Please do not use this channel for your own messages!

The user interface is divided into two fields.

• On the left-hand side in the dark-coloured box, you can find the channels and private conversations.
• Actual communication takes place in the box on the right, which has a light-coloured background.
