> I’d definitely recommend giving [Gitter now speaks Matrix! | Matrix.org](https://matrix.org/blog/2020/12/07/gitter-now-speaks-matrix) a read for inspiration of how Gitter did the precisely the same thing, if you need any guidance.

We have modeled our approach over the one at [Matrix.org - Gitter now speaks Matrix!](https://matrix.org/blog/2020/12/07/gitter-now-speaks-matrix) and [Matrix.org - Welcoming Rocket.Chat to Matrix!](https://matrix.org/blog/2022/05/30/welcoming-rocket-chat-to-matrix/) indeed!

Our first step will be extending what the Matrix Ruby SDK can do, and then move on from that.

That’s awesome, we will reach out for sure!
