_Flesh_ (or Flesh interface) is a high-level, cross-platform XMPP library, developed in
pure OCaml.

One of the goals of _Flesh_ is to have code that can run natively on major operating
systems, and compile with Js_of_ocaml for use in web applications.

Later, it should be able to use Wasm_of_ocaml too.

OMEMO support is not a goal currently, but will be in the future.

_Flesh_ supports STARTTLS, and by default, enforces the use of some form of TLS.

To disable forced STARTTLS, set the `FLESH_ALLOW_STRIPTLS` environment variable to
anything.
