Matrix Conference 2024

Matrix is not only an open network for secure, decentralised communication. It also features extensions, called Widgets, for interacting with rooms.

Here's what you can do in the workshop:

• We will take a quick look at the widget specification
• You will be guided on how to set up the matrix-widget-toolkit, a library, that makes writing widgets easy
• You will create your first own widget, that sends and receives events to and from a room

Please bring:

• Your Laptop
• Basic TypeScript knowledge
• A working TypeScript development environment with Yarn
