This removes all AngularJS code Angular version 1 is unmaintained and largely obsolete since years. Additionally, I'd rather re-use the conventions and libraries from Converse instead of having different ones in converse-desktop. This means we're losing some functionality, such as the app settings and the about modal. This is unfortunate, but ideally (non-Electron) app settings should be implemented in Converse itself and not in this repo. |

License
Like Converse.js, Converse Desktop's files are released under the Mozilla Public License version 2 (MPLv2). The gist of this license is that the covered files must stay open source, and modifications to them need to be released under the same license, but new files (for example for your own plugin) don't have to be released under the same license.
However, libsignal library, which is required for OMEMO support is released under the GPLv3. The MPLv2 license is compatible with GPLv3 and when GPLv3 code is included, the entire project effectively is licensed under the GPLv3.
Any custom build of Converse Desktop without libsignal included will again be licensed under the MPLv2.
