Help on Building out a chat functionality

I need help to understand how I could set up the database and create a chat functionality between users in a social media app I’m building for a portfolio project. Can anyone help me out with resources how to best understand and create it.

thank you

I think you’re on the right track, what I do will be creating a database of conversation and messages like you have. Each message have a relation to a conversation and you literally create a new data for every message. You can download some WhatsApp clone template and look at how it’s done.

I followed this tutorial, with some minor adjustments https://youtu.be/yN3vLdOIfXw?si=0p5Zgj-EeSiXypR7

Complementing @jeff.chia1995’s reply, you can fork the basic chat system we built for WhatsApp conversations [1] to release our plugin [2].
