[![Liberapay](https://img.shields.io/liberapay/receives/timokoesters?logo=liberapay)](https://liberapay.com/timokoesters)
[![Matrix](https://img.shields.io/matrix/conduit:conduit.rs?server_fqdn=conduit.koesters.xyz)](https://matrix.to/#/#conduit:matrix.org)
#### 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.
#### Can I try it out?
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?
##### From source
Clone the repo, build it with `cargo build --release` and call the binary
(target/release/conduit) from somewhere like a systemd script. [Read
more](DEPLOY_FROM_SOURCE.md)
##### Using Docker
Pull and run the docker image with
``` bash
docker pull matrixconduit/matrix-conduit:latest
docker run -d -p 8448:8000 -v db:/srv/conduit/.local/share/conduit matrixconduit/matrix-conduit:latest
```
Or build and run it with docker or docker-compose. [Read more](docker/README.md)
#### 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?
- Appservices (Bridges and Bots)
- Most federation features (invites, e2ee)
- Push notifications on mobile
- Notification settings
- Lots of testing
