## ✨ About
|
|
|
|
**thom.chat** is an open-source alternative/clone to [T3 Chat](https://t3.chat/), built for [Theo's cloneathon](https://x.com/theo/status/1931515264497254402).
|
|
|
|
It is self-hostable, by self-hosting your own app and [https://www.convex.dev/](Convex) instance.
|
|
|
|
While thom.chat is a clone, the featureset is not identical to T3 Chat.
