Hey all, One of the creators, this is the first project we've taken from inception to open source, and are working towards building a hosted service [0]. A big motivator for building it was the high costs associated with competitors like Intercom.io and Smooch It mainly comprises of 3 code bases, the server[1], the client[2] and then an application[3] to speak to the client. As always would love to hear feedback, good and bad! Also if you have any questions let me know :) [0]: https://minimal.chat [1]: https://github.com/minimalchat/daemon [2]: https://github.com/minimalchat/client [3]: https://github.com/minimalchat/operator-app
In Show HN: Open Source alternative to services like Intercom.io and Smooch
