Integrate text chat / notes #1297

Open dethe opened 8 years ago

Depends on #1296 and #1295.

Voice chat should come along with TogetherJS, but adding text chat and notes will take more work to integrate visually into the IDE. There may be a dependency on having a login system as well, for identifying chat participants.

I wouldn't say a login system is needed to identify participants. Just the ability to set your nickname to anything would be sufficient. (Basically, just like IRC.)

@CelticMinstrel Probably true. If we do have any login (for say, storing your projects for later) we should use that information, but we shouldn't require it for chat to work.
