Enables feature-rich chat integration with realtime communication, offering intuitive methods for actions like typing indicators, joining channels, and supporting features like quotes, threads, and read receipts.
PubNub takes care of the infrastructure and APIs needed for the realtime communication layer of your application. Work on your app's logic and let PubNub handle sending and receiving data across the world in less than 100ms.
This SDK offers a set of handy methods to create your own feature-rich chat or add a chat to your existing application.
It exposes various PubNub APIs to Kotlin with twists:
You will need the publish and subscribe keys to authenticate your app. Get your keys from the Admin Portal.
You'll find all the information about working with Kotlin Chat SDK in the official PubNub Kotlin Chat SDK documentation.
You'll find all the information about working with Swift Chat SDK in the official PubNub Swift Chat SDK documentation.
