TalkJS works great with jQuery
Most of the TalkJS code will live in the frontend, so it seamlessly integrates with jQuery. You can ship faster, simplify your stack, and save on development costs by using the best chat APIs and a feature-rich JavaScript SDK. It's all you need to add a fully-featured chat into your jQuery app in minutes instead of months.
<script>
let element;
onMount(async () => {
Talk.ready.then(() => {
// Synchronize user data and set up
const me = new Talk.User(oliver);
const other = new Talk.User(abby);
const session = new Talk.Session({ appId, me });
const conversationId = Talk.oneOnOneId(me, other);
const conversation = session.getOrCreateConversation(conversationId);
conversation.setParticipant(me);
conversation.setParticipant(other);
const chatbox = session.createChatbox();
chatbox.select(conversation);
chatbox.mount(element);
});
});
</script>
We were able to offload all messaging to TalkJS — hugely simplifying our development of an otherwise complex stack.
Ready-made chat UI you can customize
The chat UI comes with three different layouts—that are highly customizable—which you can mix and match to suit your needs. You have complete control over the styling, the layout, and document structure of the chat messages and the possibility to show metadata.
The TalkJS Inbox shows the chat history on the left, selected conversation on the right. It's designed to act as the messaging center of your app, usually living on its own page.
The TalkJS Chatbox is just the right half of the Inbox UI mode. It takes up less space and is designed to be embedded in your app near an order confirmation, a booking, or user profile.
You can also show a conversation in a popup that only shows up when the user clicks a button somewhere. When shown, the popup is positioned on the bottom right of your page.
