Nightly version Try it online: https://nightly.paw.msgbyte.com/

Nightly version is the automatic compile version, that means, every commit code will be automatically compiled. The reliability and stability of the data are not guaranteed, you can deploy with stable version with docker images or github release page

Motivation

At present, the existing IM applications only focus on chatting itself, and IM is naturally a multi-person collaboration method. In my opinion, it should be able to take on more responsibilities, and form its own unique way of forwarding external applications through IM workflow.

Therefore, I bring up the point of noIM, which means Not only IM. Instead, it designed a highly customized application platform for individuals/teams centered on IM, with third-party applications as enhanced functions, and a plugin system as the glue connection layer in the middle.

To this end, the functions were abstracted, and a lot of time was spent designing the underlying mechanism. An instant messaging application such as Tailchat was born for expansion from the beginning of the underlying design. Through Tailchat's plugin system, developers can easily use their favorite applications as part of Tailchat in a very natural way. Different from traditional integration methods such as Slack, the integration of Tailchat is more free, as if it is a native function.

Feature

• Pay attention to privacy, only invited members can join the group
• Prevent strangers, add friends only by nickname + a random string of numbers
• Two-level group space, dividing different topics by panels
• Highly customized group space, create original group space by grouping with dragging and dropping. At the same time, more plugins can be used to add more capabilities
• It can be rigorous or fun. Through the combination of plugins, Tailchat can be created for different scenarios. It can be for individuals or for enterprises
• The backend microservice structure is ready for large-scale deployment. Don't worry about what to do after the number of user growth

Performance and Expansion

Tailchat is a modern open source IM application which based on React + Typescript

Front-end microkernel architecture + backend microservice architecture, Tailchat is ready for clustering deployment.

The front end empowers the application through the plugin system, which is very simple and easy to expand for the secondary development of Tailchat.

NOTICE: Although the core functionality of Tailchat is currently in a stable stage, its exposed interface for third-party developers is still being improved. Generally speaking, it is backward compatible, but retains the possibility of Break Change
