git clone https://github.com/mitterio/android-typing-indicator-demo.git
After that, open your project using Android Studio and make following changes:
- Add your application ID. Open
App.kt
and replace the existing application ID with your own application ID. - Add a channel ID. Open
MainActivity.kt
and replace the existing channel ID with the channel ID that you received after running the local server (as mentioned in the previous section).
