{{ page.title }}

This is a Python 2 application using Twisted that bridges the Matrix chat network with the Gitter system.

This is supposed to be deployed as a Matrix application service alongside a homeserver. It allows users to log in to their personal Gitter accounts and chat in Gitter rooms via their Matrix client.

Contrary to other bridges, this doesn't link a public Matrix room with a Gitter one. You won't be able to join a Gitter room without a Gitter account. On the other hand, Gitter users won't see the difference between a Matrix user and a normal Gitter user, since they will appear to be chatting natively.

Find it on GitHub.
