IRCd is a free and open source server which facilitates real-time communication over the
|
||||
internet. It was started in 1988 by Jarkko Oikarinen in the University of Oulu and eventually
|
||||
made its way to William Pitcock et al, whom after 2005 developed the project under the alias
|
||||
*Charybdis*. In 2014 a protocol was proposed to reinvigorate real-time communication in lieu
|
||||
of growing commercial competition and a lack of innovation from open source alternatives to
|
||||
compete. This protcol is known as the *Matrix* protocol.

The developer preview will install charybdis in a specific directory isolated from the
|

system. It will not use or install system libraries. It will download and build the

dependencies from the submodules we have pinned here and build them the way we have

configured. Charybdis should be executed using those builds. You may need to set the

`LD_LIBRARY_PATH` to the built libraries. None of this will be required when released.

### Installation
|
||||
|
||||
#### Downloading Charybdis
|
||||
|
||||
* `git clone https://github.com/charybdis-ircd/charybdis`
|
||||
* `cd charybdis`
|
||||
* `git checkout 5`
|
||||
- Verify you have the latest source tree and **are on the Matrix branch**.

#### Building from git (production)
