# The Grid # The Grid protocol
The Grid is a fork of the Matrix protocol with a different set of core values and a true community management. The Grid is a Push-Native, Federated and Decentralised Event bus designed around privacy ([EU GDPR](https://eugdpr.org/)) and self-hosting. It is an alternative protocol to Matrix.
It aims to be care more for privacy and much more friendly to self-hosted infrastructures.

We are currently putting it all together before official kickoff. We are currently building the first client and server implementations, and a first test network is online.
See the [Sunrise](https://gitlab.com/thegridprotocol/home/milestones/1) milestone for the current progress. See the [Sunrise](https://gitlab.com/thegridprotocol/home/milestones/1) milestone for the current progress.

## Getting Started
The protocol specification is currently hosted in the [Specification](https://gitlab.com/thegridprotocol/docs/spec) group. Please also look at [the open Merge Requests](https://gitlab.com/groups/thegridprotocol/docs/spec/-/merge_requests) which will contain the Work In Progress. Reviews are extremely welcome!
You can join the test network using [Gridepo](https://gitlab.com/kamax-io/grid/gridepo) and either a Matrix client or [Soler](https://gitlab.com/kamax-io/grid/soler). Please let us know if you start working on your own implementations: we will add them here so people can try them out too.
> **WARNING:** The test rooms on the test network are often reset to allow upgrades of algorithms and databases until the specification has reached v0.1
