Technologies to create a chat application with different channels like Slack?

• Socket.io

  826 60,129 7.8 TypeScript

  Realtime application framework (Node.JS server)

  

Just developing a rest + rpc library for cases like that. Currently it uses http, but i'm working on websockets for this, using socket.io as the underlying layer. It will be there in the 1.0 release soon. You have ability to simply call functions across client/server (RPC, like tRPC but much simpler). And its planned to allow to pass callback functions. Also even pass file objects from your browser dom to them and they will automatially get streamed to the server ;) Just the communcation layer for the folks because i see the same issues every day. So check back...

• Primus

  3 4,461 5.3 JavaScript

  :zap: Primus, the creator god of the transformers & an abstraction layer for real-time to prevent module lock-in.

  

Socket.io would work, but I'd recommend using primus with uws https://github.com/primus/primus
