Hi,

I created a chat with a simple list viewer for one person. Overall, I want to create an instant chat with multiple users and retrieve and store the messengers from Firebase, not Airtable etc. I would like to customise the messenger with profile pic and name as well. Is that sort of customisation doable?

Thanks

yes it is possible, but it is a large project. I would recommned you search the discussion group for CHAT and FIREBASE. There have been a number of topics and tutorials on how to do it, including configuring users.

Happy Thunking!
