Our Japan mini hackathon will run just before the WebRTC Conference in Tokyo on the 16 and 17 February. Winners will be able to pitch to the main conference – a mix of industry leaders, technology vendors, developers, enterprises, web companies and telcos from around the world. The event will be run in Japanese, with occasional translation for those unable to speak Japanese. Pitches can be given in either Japanese or English.

Matrix (matrix.org) is an open source distributed persistent messaging fabric with eventual consistency, open federation and strong cryptographic guarantees – used for securely exchanging messages and synchronising communication history between humans, devices and services with no single points of control or data ownership. It consists of an open standard defining RESTful HTTP APIs and open source, Apache-licensed reference server and client implementations for exchanging and persisting arbitrary JSON data. It can be to exchange group chat, voice or video calls, IoT data, or any information you could wish to publish/subscribe via an internet-wide open persistent messaging network.
Many open source clients, including Vector and Matrix Console Web, already support WebRTC – so an idea for a hack would be to use or take inspiration from these in your application. You can find more information about Matrix clients here.
Also feel free to ask questions and chat to the matrix team in the official Matrix HQ chatroom!
