matrix-commander-rs

simple but convenient CLI-based Matrix client app for sending, receiving, and much more

Help create this Rust program

This Rust project is currently bare essentials. A more feature-rich Python package matrix-commander exists. See matrix-commander. The vision is to have a compatible program in Rust. This project depends on you. The project will only advance if you provide some code. Have a look at the repo matrix-commander-rs. Please help! :pray: Please contribute code to enhance this matrix-commander crate. Safe!
