TalkJS is packed with out-of-the-box features. From push, SMS, and email notifications to emoji, message search, typing indicators, file sharing, and so on. With support for some advanced features like email and SMS fallback, word blacklists, location sharing, and real-time message translations.

// Synchronize user data and set up
const currentUser = new Talk.User({
    id: 79302,                      // user id
    name: "George Looney",          // full name
    email: "george@looney.net"      // for offline email fallback
});
const talkSession = new Talk.Session({
    appId: "9352938974",            // your TalkJS account id
    me: currentUser                 // make George the active user
});

// All set! Let's turn a div into George Looney's messaging center
const inbox = talksSession.createInbox();
inbox.mount(this.$refs.talkjs);
