Hello world!
I have built with @code-alt, @martin and @wh0 (we’re a team ) a full chat platform for Glitch. It has many features, like:
Using emojis like :) or ;) will turn them into their real forms (it has a bunch of other emoji saved too)
You can close the pane using a handy button on the bottom toolbar if you need more room while coding.
Whenever someone sends you a message, it will send a little sound! If the pane is closed, a red sign will appear at the bottom toolbar telling you how many messages your group has sent you.
It doesn’t matter what theme you use, the chatbox will still work.
See who said what
You can see who just joined and disconnected.
100% security, we don’t get your private information
Has tracking, to disable it use /config debug_mode=true
We have secured everything and now it is not possible to inject CSS/HTML/JS (v. 3.9.0)
Allows guest messages
Anyone can join with the bookmarklet
Even if you disconnect, the messages will be saved
Automated Bot
Various shortcuts
There’s a game (type /bot game)
Type /bot rickroll to get a rickroll link
There is no need to manually update the bookmarklet, every time the page loads it makes a request and automatically converts the code to a bookmarklet
@tiagorangel2011 → Testing, a lot of contributed code @code-alt → a lot of contributions, too @wh0 → Original scripts, moderator @martin → Testing, moderator, project editor @nobody → moderator
@community (including you) → Thanks for all the support related with this project!
just tried it. and it looks amazing! i really like the concept of this. if its okay with you (and everyone else who worked on this), could i use the part of your code that saves and loads the messages?
Hi y’all! The collaboration on this through the long weekend and today was really cool to witness, so thanks for not only building it, but sharing the process and working with each other so well!
I am going to have to bear some potentially bad news here, though: this surfaced that we had recently, unintentionally introduced a content security policy change that could potentially be used for harm. A change for that has just been deployed to ensure the security of everyone in the editor, and unfortunately that may break this work.
At the very least, the team and I had a great discussion today about how we should start thinking about ways to make the editor a safe place for the community to build upon, like you all did with this chat app. All I can offer you now are stickers (@tiagorangel2011@code-alt@wh0@Martin - email your address to me directly jenn@glitch.com if you’re interested), but hopefully in the future we can offer an actual rad developer experience extending the editor and more.
