Hello everybody,

is it possible to create a corona chat app?

I mean are there functions to send a message to a server and back to a user?

If it is possible please give me some hints how to start and which functions I would need.

Greetings,

Maurice

Look up the network.request() API call.

The network.request() is slow. It’s burdened by a full HTTP call. I developed an HTML5 socket solution for use with pusher.com available here:

I have not yet seen a better solution.

Corona SDK is not going to handle video chat.  You will need to access native libraries to do that which probably can be done in Corona Enterprise.

Take a look at this …

You can certainly use most of QuickBlox API via their REST interface but I haven’t tried their chat module.
