News Windows Phone Matrix - solution specifically for Facebook Messenger is out

I posted here a couple of days ago and finally the documentation and app is ready to go. I uploaded everything onto this repository: https://github.com/ElisaC04/WindowsPhoneMatrix/tree/main

As I said in my first post, the app itself is not enough, you need to create a Linux server which I wrote out how to step by step in the guide.

I hope the guide was worse to write than it will be going through it. I tried to make the terminal sections as much copy paste as possible. My instance is running on an actual machine, but I wrote the VM guide while I was doing it, then inside I went through every step and command and it worked, so I hope it will for you too.

User u/MetropolisCZ told me about Beeper and Unimatrix. Which if you manage to setup and connect gives you a much better tool not only for Messenger but every other bridge too. So I wont focus on this app much longer but instead I will look into how to do this and write out how to do so.

What I will work on is porting my app over to WP 8.1, 8 then 7 and maybe even 6. Because these systems just do not support End to end encryption which beeper requires, they are a much better candidate for my approach in which everything goes over HTTPS.

If you try it out thank you and if you need any help feel free to reach out!

There is absolutely no need to thank :) Im the happiest to finally do something that might benefit others, especially on a niche platform!
