Ami

Chat client forked from the original Sock Chat client. Maintained for compatibility with Firefox 10+ and similar browsers.

Configuration

Configuration consists of a .env file that contains the various URLs and a default chat title (the unified one is taken from whatever the remote common.json supplies).

Building

Ami uses a build script written in Node.js and a Makefile to make life easier. I recommend using something like nvm with a Node version of at least v22.14.0 (LTS).

# Runs the package install and build recipes
make [all]

# Installs package versions expected by package-lock.json
make install

# Runs the build process for production
make build

# Updates latest versions of packages expected by package.json
make update

# Runs the build process for development
make build-dev

# Runs a development web server, implicitly runs build-dev first
make serve
