real-time chat platform.

It runs on Linux, Windows, and macOS.

## Installing cove

Download a binary of your choice from the
[latest release on GitHub](https://github.com/Garmelon/cove/releases/latest).

## Using cove

To start cove, simply run `cove` in your terminal. For more info about the
available subcommands such as exporting room logs or resetting cookies, run
`cove --help`.

If you delete rooms, cove's vault (the database it stores messages and other
things in) won't automatically shrink. If it takes up too much space, try
running `cove gc` and waiting for it to finish. This isn't done automatically
because it can take quite a while.

## Configuring cove

A complete list of config options is available in the [CONFIG.md](CONFIG.md)
file or via `cove help-config`.

When launched, cove prints the location it is loading its config file from. To
configure cove, create a config file at that location. This location can be
changed via the `--config` command line option.
