Read my post history here for why I think matrix is a bag of crap. 😅

It’s a new project that I’ve been working on locally. My code backups are handled locally (this is /c/selfhosted right?) so I’ve not had a reason to commit anything to GitHub until I was ready to let other people have a crack at it.

My Github account is 14 years old and has previous projects on it with 40+ stars. I have been actively replying as much as I can in this thread and the project is entirely open source, feel free to review the code and let me know if you find anything suspicious in there.

This will probably be the first update I release. I’ve pre emptively built the front end in Quasar and there’s even some bits of commented out code in there from where I started looking at storing authentication data per server. The plan as I see it, and I think this makes sense, is to have the web app based front-end be for people that want to run their own contained instance of both the API and front-end but then also have a Quasar desktop based app that has server switching built in. This then allows the server owner to just run the API if they want and let the user worry about how they connect.

It hasn’t been a priority for me at the moment because I’m literally the only person running a server. 😅

Now that it’s out in the wild, my next focus will be on the multi server side of things and making the text channels a bit more functional than just plaintext.
