This is the source code for the app I've been working on. It was featured in HN awhile back. <a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1590173" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1590173</a><p>This is the first time I'm open sourcing my code. Please be nice. Any feedback is welcome.<p>And a twich for the occasion <a href="http://twich.me/opensource" rel="nofollow">http://twich.me/opensource</a>
I made a site just like this <a href="http://yamr.net" rel="nofollow">http://yamr.net</a> to be able to group chat with friends/family/co-workers and not have them install anything (can go to yamr.net/any-room-name)<p>It's pretty cool seeing your site and what you decided to do differently. I'll be checking out your source later when I have time.<p>Mine is also built with php/node and I added socket.io so I could take advantage of websockets. I auto-log in users and keep chat history (although right now it only shows the latest 30 messages)<p>If you're looking to implement any features I have (like chat history) PM me and I'll share how I did it
Thanks for sharing the code on github, I've been pouring over it for a little while now, and I'm inspired to try my own node project.<p>I see twitch is using php to render views, but I was wondering if anyone has tried any js template engines? I've used jqote (based off of John Resig templating engine, I believe) and it's pretty nice, but I'm curious if anyone else has had experience with any other js templating engines.
