+**Envoy Common** is one of two repositories needed to use the messenger Envoy.<br>
+The other one is <a href="https://github.com/informatik-ag-ngl/envoy-client">**Envoy Client**</a>.<br>
+In the future, Envoy Common might be discarded, but for now, both Repositories are required in order to use Envoy to send messages to other people.<br>
+<br><br>
+
+## Features
+
+Envoy Common consists of all classes that are used both on client side and the server side, thus making them "common".
+Currently used features are:
+
+* Messages
+* Users
+  * LoginCredentials

+* EnvoyException
