About the Custom Chat and Messaging Application

Chat applications are the main way people communicate today. Popular examples include WhatsApp, Messenger, and Telegram. Many social media platforms also have built-in chat features.

Drawing inspiration from popular platforms, we developed a highly customizable chat app. It includes all the essential features to create a modern chat experience.

For the frontend, we utilized React Native, while Firebase and CometChat API were employed for the backend.
