zash: I want to add XMPP support to my Phoenix App
Zash
I don't know what Phoenix is, sorry.
Zash
It's a pretty wide question. Tricky to answer without knowing more.
Toshi
Zash I want to help in implementing XMPP in Elixir
Toshi
Zash I don't know where to get start
Zash
Toshi: Would this act as a client or a server? Have you searched for existing XMPP libraries for Elexir?
Toshi
Zash I searched I found two libraries but Can't get through the documentation is kinda confusing
Toshi
Zash So will it be better to implement on Client Side or Server Side
Zash
Toshi: What is your goal?
Toshi
Zash A Job Quest application with article, post, and periodic quests, support for freelancers and Hiring Companies, And Local Native support to find and interact with little startups and local companies
Toshi
Zash XMPP has over half of the requirements i need for this , So instead of re-inventing from Scratch thinking of using it.
Zash
By client/server I mean, would the webapp(?) talk to an XMPP server, or act as an XMPP server?
Toshi
The Backend talks to the XMPP server and the frontend gets the API from Backend

I'm not sure we understand each other

Zash Easier Version -- The Point is How to use XMPP in your App, which has a loads of features
Toshi
Zash Thank you For your Time , I think I'll learn erlang a bit and see if the xmpp library makes sense .. (P.S. Sorry for my Bad English)
Zash
I would imagine something like:
Install XMPP server.
Add XMPP client library to app.
Find out how to connect to the server from the app.
Toshi
Zash I figured out that React and React/Native has some libraries for it -- It's would be my last choice
Zash
Modern web development is not my thing. If you have more specific XMPP questions I might be able to help more.
Toshi
Zash It's Okay, Thanks
Zash
🙂
Toshi
Zash How can I find you next time
Zash
Here I guess, but there are others here that should be able to help too.
