Description

Element Server Suite Community for Cloudron — the complete official Matrix stack from Element.

The app's main Location serves the Matrix Authentication Service — set it to something like account.example.com. All other domains (chat, matrix, RTC, admin, call) are prefilled. Your Matrix server name (the domain in @alice:example.com) defaults to the parent domain of that location (account.example.comexample.com). Users chat at the Chat domain (e.g. chat.example.com).

After installation, add the Matrix well-known delegation on your bare domain via the Cloudron dashboard (Domains → Well-Known) — see the documentation for the exact JSON.

This package includes:

  • Synapse — the Matrix homeserver
  • Matrix Authentication Service (MAS) — next-generation Matrix authentication (Matrix 2.0). Enables Element X login, QR-code login and Element Call.
  • Element Web — the web chat client
  • Element Admin — admin console
  • Matrix RTC backend — LiveKit-based backend for Element Call video/voice calls
  • Element Call — standalone call web app for shareable call links
  • Hookshot — bridge webhooks, GitHub, GitLab, JIRA and RSS into rooms (optional)

Users sign in with their Cloudron accounts via Cloudron's built-in OpenID Connect provider.
