Package Exports

  • tinode-webapp

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (tinode-webapp) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Single-page chat with Tinode

Single-page web chat application built with Tinode. The app uses React, Google's material design fonts and icons. The Tinode javascript SDK has no external dependencies. Overall it's a lot like open source WhatsApp or Telegram web apps.

The app is about 200KB minified and gzipped. That includes all dependencies (React, ReactDOM), fonts, graphics, css etc.

Although the app is generally usable, keep in mind that this is work in progress. Some bugs probably exist. The app was tested in the latest Chrome & Firefox only. NPM package is available at https://www.npmjs.com/package/tinode-webapp.

Try possibly newer or older version live at https://api.tinode.co/. For passwords for demo accounts and other instructions see here.

Getting support

Internationalization

The app is fully internationalized using React-Intl. The UI language is selected automatically from the language specified by the browser. A specific language can be forced by adding hl=XX parameter to the URL, i.e. https://api.tinode.co/#?hl=ru.

As of the time of this writing the following translations exist: English, Russian, Simplified Chinese. More translations are welcome. Send a pull request with a json file with translated strings. Take a look at English, Russian, or Simplified Chinese translations for guidance.

Missing functionality

  • Previews not generated for videos, audio, links or docs.
