<p>Our mission, if we choose to accept it, is to expand the capabilities of Matrix and Element. Driven by user needs and a desire to deliver threads through teamwork...</p>
In the past few months we were on a mission to bring threading to Matrix. We first wanted to discover how suited to this problem the current protocol is, and to better understand the users' expectations. It soon became clear that we would have to make updates to the specification in order to deliver the experience we think will make this feature successful

<p>The Matrix core team is busier than ever, juggling hundreds of Matrix Spec Core Proposals and undergoing some major techtonic shifts as Matrix evolves into the ultimate secure decentralised communication network. In this talk, we'll give a high-level survey of the state of the core project, including: * How we're ensuring that flagship clients are as attractive as possible to a mainstream audience - and why we will fail if we don't. * How we're making Matrix go <em>fast</em> via v3 sync and ...

<p>Events are at the heart of the Matrix Protocol, but what are they? And how does the Protocol build on them to create rooms, room graphs, and other data structures? This talk aims to demystify some of these concepts, giving an overview of events, room event graphs, and associated structures. In the spirit of accessiblity, there will be an attempt to make the talk as approachable as possible for those without a ton of programming experience (although some basic knowledge will be helpful!). We ...

<p>A deep-dive into Sync v3: a super-fast API to sync Matrix clients with their homeserver. The talk is broken up into a brief history of syncing in Matrix to set the scene before we dive into the problem space and explore how Sync v3 is different and how it addresses one of the most important and complex parts of the Client-Server API: syncing.</p>

<p>Matrix (https://matrix.org) is an open protocol for secure, decentralised communication - defining an end-to-end-encrypted real-time communication layer for the open Web. Historically the network has been made up of newly written native Matrix clients, or bridges to 3rd party existing chat systems (e.g. Slack, Discord, Telegram).</p> <p>The matrix-rust-sdk is a modular Matrix client library, meant to be a robust implementation of the protocol, and to make even the most advanced features such ...

<p>I'm working on a Massive Multiplayer Online (MMO) browser game which uses Matrix for authentication, authorization and storing save states. Lobbies and characters are managed as Matrix rooms which allows players to have a copy of their character's data at all times, migrate it to other Matrix accounts or share a character with friends.</p>
