LOQUI Instant Messenger is a mobile chat app for Firefox OS that allows you to use your Hangouts™ or Jabber® account. https://loqui.im
It uses a great javascript library for performing XMPP communication which is called "Strophe.js". Strophe is capable of connecting to any XMPP server listening trough BOSH (Bidirectional-streams Over Synchronous HTTP).
Currently all connections are made through the open BOSH gateway at http://app.loqui.im/http-bind but soon the app should be able to detect wether user's account provided has its own BOSH server and connect to it and if not, connect to a open BOSH from its country.
In longer term, connections should be made through javascript TCPSockets API, avoiding the need for BOSH servers and thus improving performance and reliability.
We would like to thank:
- Jack Moffitt and everyone who contributed to create Strophe.js
- Javi Jimenez and Ignacio Olalde from Tapquo for creating Lungo, the framework supporting the UI.
- Alastair Cameron (CameronMusic) for composing the notification sounds.
- Movilforum for providing us the awesome Firefox OS Developer Preview devices from Geeksphone.
- You for being about to stargaze or fork this project on GitHub ;)
