Open Source and Developers

Open IM Foundations for Engineering Teams

OpenIMX provides clear server, client, and SDK modules for teams that need to audit, extend, integrate, and evolve messaging capabilities. The GitHub entry is configured through environment variables for consistent deployment.

const client = new OpenIMX({
  endpoint: "/api",
  websocket: "/ws"
});

await client.connect();
client.on("message", render);
await client.send({
  conversationId,
  content
});
