Tutorials and DIY Guides

For a room chat, your Firebase database structure could be:-

Chat-DB
    chat-Room
         Room-Code
         Message-List
             Date-Stamp( as message ID)
                 Sender
                 Message-Text

You will need to save every message under the correct key.

When any user runs the app and enters the room code, you should read your Firebase and display the chat messages under that room before giving the user the ability to send his/her own message.
