- ConversationView: infinite-scroll "加载更多" -- scroll-to-40px triggers
topic.msgHasMoreMessages()+getMessagesPage() to fill exactly the missing
seq ranges (not naive since/before paging, since server-side deletions can
punch holes in an otherwise-contiguous range), with scroll position
preserved across the prepend.
- lib/tinode/send.ts: sendReply() ports the old app's exact quote
construction (Drafty.replyContent truncates, Drafty.quote wraps with the
sender's name, Drafty.append inlines the whole quote block ahead of the
new text -- the receiving side never needs to look up the original
message). forwardMessage() sends a single message directly to one picked
target topic (ForwardPickerModal) -- simplified from the old app's
stage-then-compose flow, trading that nicety for a much smaller dialog.
- lib/messages/drafty.tsx: added the 'QQ' Drafty style-tag case ported
against the SDK's actual Drafty.quote() output shape (no `key`/`data` of
its own -- verified by reading tinode.dev.js, not guessed).
- lib/api/messages.ts: favoriteMessages() -- a single message is just a
one-item batch against POST /v1/im/favorites/batch (confirmed in
docs/IM-前后端对接文档.md:1935).
- Context menu now shows 引用/复制/收藏/转发/多选/[撤回]/删除 in spec order
(README §3.5); 翻译 still deliberately absent (no real backend for it,
confirmed by research).
Verified end to end: sent a real quote reply and confirmed the exact wire
packet (head.reply, QQ fmt span, MN entity) and that it renders correctly
via the new QQ formatter case; favorite POSTed and returned created_count:1;
forward POSTed the expected {head:{forwarded:"topic:seq"}} packet.

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/.
For demo access and other instructions see here.
