 # Native Node Modules
 
-For some features, the desktop version of Element can make use of native Node
-modules. These allow Riot to integrate with the desktop in ways that a browser
-cannot.
-
-While native modules enable powerful new features, they must be complied for
-each operating system. For official Element releases, we will always build these
-modules from source to ensure we can trust the compiled output. In the future,
-we may offer a pre-compiled path for those who want to use these features in a
-custom build of Element without installing the various build tools required.
-
-Do note that compiling a module for a particular operating system
-(Linux/macOS/Windows) will need to be done on that operating system.
-Cross-compiling from a host OS for a different target OS may be possible, but
-we don't support this flow with Element dependencies at this time.
-
-At the moment, we need to make some changes to the Element release process before
-we can support native Node modules at release time, so these features are
-currently disabled by default until that is resolved. The following sections
-explain the manual steps you can use with a custom build of Element to enable
-these features if you'd like to try them out.

-## Adding Seshat for search in E2E encrypted rooms
-
-Seshat is a native Node module that adds support for local event indexing and
-full text search in E2E encrypted rooms.
-
-Since Seshat is written in Rust, the Rust compiler and related tools need to be
-installed before installing Seshat itself. To install Rust please consult the
-official Rust [documentation](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install).
-
-Seshat also depends on the SQLCipher library to store its data in encrypted form
-on disk. You'll need to install it via your OS package manager.
-
-After installing the Rust compiler and SQLCipher, Seshat support can be added
-using yarn inside the `electron_app/` directory:
-
-    yarn add matrix-seshat
-
-You will have to rebuild the native libraries against electron's version of
-of node rather than your system node, using the `electron-build-env` tool.
-This is also needed to when pulling in changes to Seshat using `yarn link`.
-Again from the `electron_app/` directory:
-
-    yarn add electron-build-env
-
-Recompiling Seshat itself can be done like so:
-
-    yarn run electron-build-env -- --electron 6.1.1 -- neon build matrix-seshat --release
-
-Please make sure to include all the `--` as well as the `--release` command line
-switch at the end. Modify your electron version accordingly depending on the
-version that is installed on your system.
-
-After this is done the Electron version of Element can be run from the main folder
-as usual using:
-
-    yarn electron
