This mini-project was one of the first web apps I built. Using Google authentication, it enables users to send and receive text-based messages in real time. The chat room supports both left-to-right and right-to-left text, as well as emojis. The message data is stored in a Firestore database and updated whenever a new message is sent. Since the core functionality of the web app is based on a tutorial (see Acknowledgments), I spent a lot of time making it my own by adding new features (e.g. bidirectional text support, time stamps and usernames on messages) and by revamping the design to my liking.
