This example shows you how to use React and TalkJS to create a team chat with channels (like Slack or Teams). It's similar to the remote work demo that you can try on our website. See our How to use TalkJS to create a team chat with channels tutorial for more details.

The example uses React version 18. You can use the React SDK with versions 17 and up.

1. Clone or download this project.
2. Install dependencies by either running npm install or yarn.
3. Create a TalkJS account.
4. In talkjsConfig.js, replace appId with your own app ID. You can find your app ID on the Settings page of your TalkJS dashboard.
5. From this point on, you're ready to start up the app using using either npm run or yarn start. The app will be up and running at localhost:3000.

The app is prepopulated with a default user and a couple of hardcoded conversations, which easily can be replaced with your own users and conversations. You can find these conversations and the default userId in src/talkJsConfig.js as well.
