+## A community-driven [Matrix](https://matrix.org/) homeserver in Rust
+
+
+
+[continuwuity] is a Matrix homeserver written in Rust.
+It's a community continuation of the [conduwuit](https://github.com/girlbossceo/conduwuit) homeserver.
+
+
+
+
+### Why does this exist?
+
+The original conduwuit project has been archived and is no longer maintained. Rather than letting this Rust-based Matrix homeserver disappear, a group of community contributors have forked the project to continue its development, fix outstanding issues, and add new features.
+
+Our aim is to provide a stable, well-maintained alternative for current conduwuit users and to welcome new users looking for a lightweight, efficient Matrix homeserver.
+
+
+### Who are we?
+
+We are a group of Matrix enthusiasts, developers and system administrators who have used conduwuit and believe in its potential. Our team includes both previous
+contributors to the original project and new developers who want to help maintain and improve this important piece of Matrix infrastructure.
+
+We operate as an open community project, welcoming contributions from anyone interested in improving continuwuity.
+
+### What is Matrix?
+
+[Matrix](https://matrix.org) is an open, federated, and extensible network for
+decentralized communication. Users from any Matrix homeserver can chat with users from all
+other homeservers over federation. Matrix is designed to be extensible and built on top of.
+You can even use bridges such as Matrix Appservices to communicate with users outside of Matrix, like a community on Discord.
+
+### What are the project's goals?
+
+Continuwuity aims to:
+
+- Maintain a stable, reliable Matrix homeserver implementation in Rust
+- Improve compatibility and specification compliance with the Matrix protocol
+- Fix bugs and performance issues from the original conduwuit
+- Add missing features needed by homeserver administrators
+- Provide comprehensive documentation and easy deployment options
+- Create a sustainable development model for long-term maintenance
+- Keep a lightweight, efficient codebase that can run on modest hardware
+
+### Can I try it out?
+
+Not right now. We've still got work to do!
+
+
+### What are we working on?
+
+We're working our way through all of the issues in the [Forgejo project](https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/issues).
+
+- [Replacing old conduwuit links with working continuwuity links](https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/issues/742)
+- [Getting CI and docs deployment working on the new Forgejo project](https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/issues/740)
+- [Packaging & availability in more places](https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/issues/747)
+- [Appservices bugs & features](https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/issues?q=&type=all&state=open&labels=178&milestone=0&assignee=0&poster=0)
+- [Improving compatibility and spec compliance](https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/issues?labels=119)
+- Automated testing
+- [Admin API](https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/issues/748)
+- [Policy-list controlled moderation](https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/issues/750)
+
+### Can I migrate my data from x?
+
+- Conduwuit: Yes
+- Conduit: No, database is now incompatible
+- Grapevine: No, database is now incompatible
+- Dendrite: No
+- Synapse: No
+
+Although you can't migrate your data from other homeservers, it is perfectly acceptable to set up continuwuity on the same domain as a previous homeserver.

+## Contribution
+
+### Development flow
+
+- Features / changes must developed in a separate branch
+- For each change, create a descriptive PR
+- Your code will be reviewed by one or more of the continuwuity developers
+- The branch will be deployed live on multiple tester's matrix servers to shake out bugs
+- Once all testers and reviewers have agreed, the PR will be merged to the main branch
+- The main branch will have nightly builds deployed to users on the cutting edge
+- Every week or two, a new release is cut.
+
+The main branch is always green!
+
+
+### Policy on pulling from other forks
+
+We welcome contributions from other forks of conduwuit, subject to our review process.
+When incorporating code from other forks:
+
+- All external contributions must go through our standard PR process
+- Code must meet our quality standards and pass tests
+- Code changes will require testing on multiple test servers before merging
+- Attribution will be given to original authors and forks
+- We prioritize stability and compatibility when evaluating external contributions
+- Features that align with our project goals will be given priority consideration
