Matrix (protocol)

Matrix is a protocol (set of rules) that helps different computers communicate with each other to send messages, share videos and music, and make phone calls. It's like a language that all computers can understand. With Matrix, computers can talk to each other in their own special way, like one can say 'hello' in English and the other can say 'hola' in Spanish. That way, we can have fun conversations without needing to learn a new language.
