Colloquy uses its own core, known as Chat Core, although in the past it used [[Irssi]] as its IRC protocol engine. One of the primary goals behind Colloquy was to create an IRC, SILC and ICB client with Mac OS X visuals.  Colloquy contains a [[user interface]] that follows [[Apple Inc.|Apple]]'s [[Human interface guidelines]] in addition to containing support for traditional IRC command-line controls such as /nick and /join.

An official app for [[iOS (Apple)|iOS]] was released and features support for all IRC commands, a built-in browser, push notifications and other features.
