- CRITICAL correctness bug: resetTinode() was defined but never called anywhere. Switching tenants (TenantEntryPage) only updated the session store; the Tinode singleton it drives is created once and permanently cached (getTinode() lazily creates it, reusing it forever afterward), so every subsequent login kept talking to the FIRST tenant's host regardless of which tenant was actually selected -- multi-tenant switching was silently broken. Also moved LoginPage's getTinode() call to after its "no tenant yet" redirect guard, so it can't get created against a not-yet-resolved tenant in the first place. - Error strips across all four auth pages were missing the error_outline icon README §10.1 specifies. - Fixed a token mix-up affecting every error-state input border across Register/PasswordInput: README's exact spec is border #d94b4b (this app's --color-danger-text) with #cf3f3f text below (--color-danger-border) -- the code had them backwards, borders were using danger-border. - TenantEntryPage: added the missing 企业注册/遇到问题 links (now real, working pages -- see below), fixed the business icon's color token (was accent #1677ff, spec calls for focus-border #4091ff). - LoginPage/ResetPasswordPage: the "切换企业"/"返回登录" back link was nested inside the vertically-centered form container, so it got pulled to the page's middle instead of staying pinned to the top like every reference screenshot shows it. Also gave LoginPage's brand panel the spec's 56/44 split (was an even 50/50), 40px headline (was Tailwind's 36px text-4xl), and the missing footer links row; added a mobile-only large-logo facade (matches 1e-mobile-login.png) since the desktop split-panel brand block is hidden below 900px and mobile had no tenant-identifying visual at all. - RegisterPage: removed an extra 56px-logo+tenant-name block that appears in neither the desktop nor mobile reference screenshots; added the mobile-only 48px back-chevron+title header bar the design calls for (RegisterPage previously had zero back-navigation on any breakpoint). - ResetPasswordPage: the password error text said "需要包含字母和数字" while the actual check only enforces a minimum length (>=8, no character-class requirement, matching Register's own rule) -- the message was promising a validation this page doesn't perform. - VerificationCodeButton: the resend countdown's setInterval was never cleared on unmount -- a real leak if the user navigates away mid-countdown. - New: EnterpriseRegisterPage (企业注册, README §10.5) and TenantFeedbackPage (问题反馈, README §10.6 / `01/1j`), both previously linked-to-but-nonexistent. lib/api/tenant.ts gained the REST calls they need (submitTenantApplication, submitTenantEntryFeedback, uploadPublicFile against the pre-login /v1/im/public/uploads surface, distinct from the chat-file upload endpoint).

Tinode Web
Briefing
Single-page web chat application for Tinode. The app is built on React. The Tinode javascript SDK has no external dependencies. Overall, it's a lot like open source WhatsApp or Telegram web apps.
Although the app is generally usable, keep in mind that this is work in progress. Some bugs probably exist, some features are missing. The app was tested in the latest Chrome & Firefox only. NPM package is available.
Try possibly newer or older version live at https://sandbox.tinode.co/.
