A Go CLI tool (bbctl) for running self-hosted Matrix bridges against the Beeper Matrix server without hosting a full homeserver. It manages official and third-party spec-compliant bridges, connecting them to a beeper.com account.

Use cases

  • run self-hosted bridges with my beeper account
  • connect a third-party matrix bridge to beeper without a homeserver
  • self-host official beeper bridges for extra privacy
  • keep message encryption on my own machine instead of beeper servers
  • manage bridge deployments from the command line
  • bridge whatsapp or telegram to beeper myself

When to choose

  • you use beeper.com and want to run custom or official bridges yourself
  • you want message re-encryption to happen on hardware you control
  • you don't want to self-host a full Matrix homeserver like Synapse

When to avoid

  • you use a self-hosted Synapse or other Matrix homeserver instead of beeper.com
  • you need native Windows support (use WSL)
  • you expect full customer support for self-hosted bridges
