    Synapse is the Matrix homeserver, it handles everything except for the voice/video call features.

        There’s an additional component, and how you deploy it depends on the method you’re deploying things. If you do the Element Server Suite (https://github.com/element-hq/ess-helm) via their instructions, it includes the voice/video component and web client. If you deploy your homeserver in a different way, you should be able to find instructions for Element Call.
