    For a nicely documented and clean Matrix client implementation in Python, see weechat-matrix[1] and the matrix-nio[2] library it's based on. There's also Mirage[3] which is also based on matrix-nio and is a GUI client.

    Incidentally WhatsApp is the one thing I haven't been able to get rid of completely, because I haven't been able to convince my friends to switch to anything else and I don't want to cut virtually everyone I know out of my life. With a lot of effort, I managed to move WhatsApp to an Android VM running on a VPS, and bridge it with Matrix. I use Mirage to access WhatsApp on the PinePhone, and Element on x86 boxes.
