The Nextcloud Desktop Client is developed in Git. Since Git makes it easy to
fork and improve the source code and to adapt it to your need, many copies
can be found on the Internet, in particular on GitHub. However, the

authoritative repository maintained by the developers is located at
https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop.

Instructions for compiling it can be found at
[Wiki/How to compile the desktop client](https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/wiki/How-to-compile-the-desktop-client).
