1. Improve the Fractal UI (A GTK Matrix client)

1.1. About the project:

Fractal is a Matrix client written in rust and GTK. It is in a quite early state but has already enough functionality for day-to-day use.

Core objectives for my project are:
- Add spell check to Fractal.
- Add UI for changing a users profile inside Fractal.
- Improve the overall user experience.
- Improve the user mentioning.
- Improve the messages history.

1.2. About me:

I'm Julian Sparber. I use GNOME already for more then 10 years, but since last year I actively contribute to GNOME, and some other free software projects.
This summer I'm at the end of my first year of a master degree program in computer science at the University of Bologna.
