A plugin-based bot for @matrix-org,
written in python using
matrix-nio,
supporting end-to-end-encryption out of the box.
It's based on the lovely nio-template by @anoadragon453
Pull Requests and feedback welcome. :-)
See plugins/README.md for further details on plugin capabilities.

- ❌ user-management
