# Parsee - the jealous XMPP<=>Matrix bridge
|
|
Parsee is a Matrix<=>XMPP bridge written in C99, with Cytoplasm, similar to Bifrost,
|
|
but it is NOT a drop-in replacment.
|
|
|
|
## Why?
|
|
### Naming
|
|
The name 'Parsee' is actually a reference to [Parsee Mizuhashi](https://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Parsee_Mizuhashi), a
|
|
"*bridge* princess".
|
|
|
|
### Reasoning (personal to LDA)
|
|
I hate Bifrost. I also wanted to dip my toes in XMPP, XML, and bridges a bit. Also, as a sister project to KappaChat,
|
|
this means that I can integrate Parsee with KappaChat however I wish it to be, which allows me to mess around with a
|
|
codebase I'm already familiar with.
|
|
|
|
### "Why not just use Matrix lol"
|
|
### "Why not just use XMPP lol"
|
|
These two having the same answer should be enough information. Also can I *just* have fun?
|
|
|
|
~~Also dependency bad.~~
|
|
|
|
## BUILDING
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ make # This generates a 'parsee' executable.
|
|
$
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### DEPENDENCIES
|
|
Parsee tries to avoid dependencies aside from [Cytoplasm](https://git.telodendria.io/Telodendria/Cytoplasm).

### Why?

> "[...] and it [BoVeX] has an achievement system, because another thing I don't like is when software will not acknowledge that you've reached an obscure error state, essentially outsmarting it."
