#### What is the goal
A fast Matrix homeserver that's easy to set up and just works. You can install it on a mini-computer like the Raspberry Pi to host Matrix for your family, friends or company.

Yes! Just open a Matrix client (< https: // app . element . io > or Element Android for example) and register on the `https://conduit.koesters.xyz` homeserver.

#### How can I deploy my own?
You just have to clone the repo, build it with `cargo build --release` and call the binary (target/release/conduit) from somewhere like a systemd script.
It's explained in more detail [here ](https://git.koesters.xyz/timo/conduit/wiki/Deploy ).

#### What is it build on?
- [Ruma ](https://www.ruma.io ): Useful structures for endpoint requests and responses that can be (de)serialized
- [Sled ](https://github.com/spacejam/sled ): A simple (key, value) database with good performance
- [Rocket ](https://rocket.rs ): A flexible web framework

#### What are the biggest things still missing?
2020-07-11 07:51:58 +00:00
- Federation (Talk to other Matrix servers)
- Appservices (Bridges and Bots)
- Push notifications on mobile
- Notification settings
2020-05-29 07:54:30 +00:00
- Lots of testing
