## Description

A JavaScript implementation of a Matter controller that communicates over WebSockets. Built on the matter.js SDK, it provides a WebSocket API compatible with the Python Matter Server and includes a web dashboard for managing commissioned devices, viewing Thread and WiFi network topology, and adjusting log levels. It supports Matter 1.6, BLE commissioning, OTA firmware updates, custom PAA certificates, and device attestation revocation sets. The server can run standalone via Docker, npm, or from source, and is designed primarily as the backend for Home Assistant's Matter integration but works with other projects too. It requires Node.js 22.13+ and uses the CSA Distributed Compliance Ledger for device certification verification.
