      @BBigford I'm not sure if you can install the rocket.chat server on Windows. I know you can setup git though.

      We'd be setting up the server in Linux. I'm just trying to figure out what I need on the github side to understand things. Because from what I've read, Git is for development as travisdh1 had mentioned, and github is just an online source for open source software.

      You shouldn't need Github for anything if you're following @scottalanmiller's guide that I linked. His is running on their latest release at the time he wrote it.

      The inquiry about github is going beyond Rocket.Chat, I'm sure there is lots of other software on there I'll stumble across while on a Windows computer, and would definitely like to know what I need to do to be able to obtain the software properly.

      Generally go download the .msi or .exe. Really, that's it.

      I must be overlooking something, because I don't see those extensions. I'll keep looking. Thanks!

        I was definitely overthinking the simple install. Looks like you can't download the software directly from github, but instead you get redirected to the software's site? In this case, https://rocket.chat

            Looks like that is a searchable GIF database... if so, haha why is that the greatest integration? Are you using it for funny office GIFs, or something that is pertinent to business?

              That is the Slack equivalent of our emoticons.... which, sadly, are still missing! /cry

                Rocket Chat will get better, Slack will eventually fold or be sold off to a giant and who knows what'll happen. At least with Rocket Chat you'll be in control of your data and can be sure that tomorrow you may not see the classic notice we've all come to love:

                "Dear Users, we at X Company love you, but the show is over, we're sorry. PS If you didn't get your data in the 10 minute window we provided, which wasn't all the data in actuality, it's been deleted, and by that we mean sold off to data mining companies, prepare for spam."

                  I've used Slack at a few larger companies. It isn't bad. But can't imagine using it over Rocket.Chat. NTG Lab has RC in the lab and a how to guide here to make it super simple.

                      Telegram also looked enticing, but we have to have something that is on-premise. 😐

                        Many of us are on Telegram, but it is just an SMS replacement, it's in no way related to business products like Rocket, Slack or OpenFire and doesn't even begin to cover the same bases. It's just "enhanced secure text messaging", nothing more. Extremely limited.

                                Hi folks, I'm member of the Rocket.Chat core team.

                                We are glad to know that you are using and liking our chat platform.

                                If you don't want to install your server, we are offering our hosting solution, similar to what slack does.

                                Just go to the url https://rocket.chat/deploy to deploy your own server

                                It's free while in beta, and when we leave the beta you can export all your data and setup your own server if you don't like our prices 😄

                                You can use our demo server to chat with me directly if you need https://demo.rocket.chat/direct/rodrigo.nascimento

                                Hope to see you there
