It is a free, open-source application available for use on Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. The app provides a fast, reliable, and secure way of chatting with others. It also allows users to join existing channels or create their own, as well as to customize the user interface to their liking. With Kiwi IRC, users can send and receive messages, share files, and even host audio and video conferences. Additionally, Kiwi IRC features an API that developers can leverage to create custom applications and services.
