The official native desktop client for Mattermost, built on Electron and running on Windows, macOS, and Linux. It wraps Mattermost servers with desktop integration such as notifications, unread badges, multi-server tabs, and deep linking.
Use cases
- use mattermost on my desktop without a browser
- connect to multiple mattermost servers in one app
- get desktop notifications for mattermost mentions
- run mattermost in the background with unread badges
- open mattermost links directly in a native app
- deploy a pre-configured mattermost desktop app to my company
When to choose
- your team self-hosts Mattermost and wants a native desktop experience
- you need multi-server support, tabs, and OS-level notifications
- you want an open-source, cross-platform chat client
When to avoid
- you use Slack, Teams, or another chat platform instead of Mattermost
- you only need Mattermost occasionally in a browser
- you need a mobile client rather than desktop
