Browser-based Instant Messaging with Strophe.js and Backbone.js

Download this project as a .zip file Download this project as a tar.gz file

Converse.js implements an XMPP based instant messaging client in the browser.

It is used by collective.xmpp.chat, which is a Plone instant messaging add-on.

The ultimate goal is to enable anyone to add chat functionality to their websites, regardless of the backend.

Currently this is not yet the case, as the code makes ajax calls to the (Plone) backend to fetch user info.
