# 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).
