Community-maintained Matrix homeserver in Rust

Continuwuity is a community-driven Matrix homeserver implemented in Rust. It continues the Conduwuit codebase with a focus on long-term maintenance, performance, and compatibility across the federated Matrix network.

Key Features

  • Matrix homeserver implementation supporting federation with other servers
  • High-performance, lightweight Rust codebase designed for modest hardware
  • Secure-by-default, memory-safe implementation
  • Appservice support for bridges to external platforms
  • Administrator tooling, including admin command reference and operational documentation
  • Multiple deployment options, including container images and Nix-based builds

Use Cases

  • Self-host a personal or community Matrix server for secure, federated chat
  • Run a lightweight homeserver for small organizations on limited resources
  • Host Matrix bridges via appservices to connect Matrix with other platforms

Limitations and Considerations

  • No public open-registration demo instances are provided by the project
  • Migration is primarily intended for Conduwuit users; databases from several other homeservers are not compatible

Continuwuity is a practical choice for administrators who want a Rust-based Matrix homeserver with an emphasis on efficiency, ongoing maintenance, and improving protocol compliance. It targets stable operation and approachable deployment for modern Matrix infrastructure.
