Summary

Matrix is an ambitious new ecosystem for open federated Instant Messaging and

VoIP. Synapse is a reference "homeserver" implementation of Matrix from the

core development team at matrix.org, written in Python/Twisted. It is intended

to showcase the concept of Matrix and let folks see the spec in the context of

a coded base and let you run your own homeserver and generally help bootstrap

the ecosystem.
