Feature Profiles
================
.. sect:feature-profiles:
Matrix supports many different kinds of clients: from embedded IoT devices to
desktop clients. Not all clients can provide the same feature sets as other
clients e.g. due to lack of physical hardware such as not having a screen.

be reached (e.g. if a mobile site could display push notifications it could be
classified as a mobile client).
