In order to compile the project you have to checkout Chat21-Android-SDK (https://github.com/chat21/chat21-android-sdk), open Chat21-Android-SDK with Android Studio and compile it. After that you have to set the path of the Chat21-Android-SDK from settings.gradle file of the Chat21-Android-Demo project.

@andrealeo83 , I'm sorry to say that this might not be the best way to encourage developers to contribute or adapt your chat app. I also experienced what @esmondgh said and it was quite frustrating indeed with several hours finding what wasn't missing in the first place. There are other open source chat demos on github that runs instantly.

I strongly recommend you overhaul this entire repository and make it more easier to run. Don't forget you are on a World platform and the World is watching. Who knows you just might stumble into a big fortune from just this singular repository. Best.
