The express_example example was already working, but I made some "improvements":
Added a package.json, to make it as easy as typing npm install --> node app.js to get the example running.
The styling of elements was a little funky, particularly in Chrome. I cleaned it up a little.
I improved the client-side JS a bit. The text input automatically gets focus at the beginning, & you can use the enter key instead of having to click the button every time.
Hmm, tempting to go back and add a readme.md or some comments to the source...
Update 1: I made some similar changes to helloworld_example (no CSS changes, just package.json & client-side JS).
Update 2: I made some similar changes to multiroomchat_example (no CSS changes, just package.json & client-side JS -- also added a count of the number of others in the room).
Update 3: Made more changes to multiroomchat_example. Now retrieving room count in a better way (using Groupcount method instead of counting the Groupusers property). Added notification of leaving and entering -- though this is a bit crude, may be better to leave it out, rather than show it being done somewhat poorly.
