Hi @duytq94

How hard it would be to start allowing group chats? Can you advise?

I think group chat can be deployed without too much effort.

  • First let the user create a group (should add a collection named groups next users and messages have already existed) with the group name, users invited (we had list users for choosing)...

  • Second, if a user is invited, update a field named my_group in that user node (to getting all group the current user be invited later).

  • Then design another screen to load all group chat the current user joined, if the user goes to any group, get this group's details then render the UI.

@duytq94 to simplify I can create manually group chats /rooms and people only join and text right? I guess your code already do that?

Or I would need to change something?

Sorry so many questions, I'm still very noob
