    Realtime Chat Application

    Realtime Chat Application

    Build and deploy a real time chat application

    This full-stack tutorial project shows how to build and deploy a real-time chat app using React on the client and Node/Express with Socket.io on the server. It covers the mechanics of establishing WebSocket connections, broadcasting and receiving messages, and maintaining active user rooms. The repository includes scripts and instructions to spin up both client and server quickly so you can experiment locally. It illustrates common patterns like event-driven messaging, joining/leaving rooms, and rendering live message streams in the UI. The goal is to teach production-adjacent concepts such as minimal state management, basic routing, and environment configuration without overwhelming the learner. The project has been widely referenced by learners tackling socket-based chat as an entry point to real-time web development.

    CSS-Only Chat

    CSS-Only Chat

    A truly monstrous async web chat using no JS whatsoever

    css-only-chat is a proof-of-concept demonstration that implements a functioning chat interface using only HTML and CSS, without any JavaScript or backend logic. The project showcases creative use of CSS selectors, checkboxes, labels, and the :checked pseudo-class to mimic interactive behaviors normally handled by JavaScript. Messages are pre-written in the HTML and displayed based on user interaction, making it more of a playful experiment than a real messaging platform. Its main purpose is to illustrate the limits of CSS as a programming and UI tool, serving as both an educational example and a bit of humor within the developer community. By pushing CSS beyond its conventional role, it demonstrates how user interfaces can be simulated through styling tricks and static structures. Although not suitable for production use, it stands as a fun exercise in front-end creativity and unconventional coding challenges.

    Android Chat SDK ➜ Stream Chat API. UI component libraries for chat

    This is the official Android SDK for Stream Chat, a service for building chat and messaging applications. This library includes both a low-level chat SDK and a set of reusable UI components.

We're proud to say that we're the first Android Chat SDK that supports Jetpack Compose! We released our Compose UI Components one day after the official Jetpack Compose 1.0 release and our team members have been working hard on it since then. Now it's mature and stable enough for us to officially recommend it for all new applications and all modern chat implementations. If you're looking for something highly customizable and extremely performant, check out our Compose SDK.
