converse.js
===========
Converse.js_ is a web based `XMPP/Jabber`_ instant messaging client.
2012-10-23 21:01:24 +02:00
It enables you to add chat functionality to your website, independent of any
specific backend. You will however need an XMPP server to connect to, either
your own, or a public one.
2013-03-01 09:55:54 +01:00
It is used by collective.xmpp.chat_, which is a Plone_ instant messaging add-on.
