Chat Rooms

To facilitate communication between users, implement a chat UI for your Epicenter application.

Push notifications

Epicenter sends out push notifications about chat messages. To ensure that your simulation participants can subscribe to them, enable push channels for the project.

Chat lifespan

Epicenter keeps a log of the chat messages as long as the scope of the chat exists. When the scope is deleted, the chat room and all messages in it are deleted as well.
