Using matterbridge - https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge

Very unfinished!! Mostly a programming exercise for me for now to practice fullstack. Theoretically it should be possible to reuse this but i make no guarantees especially while it is yno unfinished and potentially insecure. run at your own risk!
