World Chat

World Chat is a unique messenger app that allows different users to live chat and translate their messages on the fly. Language should be no barrier to internet communication!

Create a new account or login with the credentials below:
email: man@aol.com
password: 123456

Abstract

Each user has a primary language key attached to their profile. If two users enter a chat together, a comparison is made between each of their primary languages. If primary languages are different, each message sent is stored in its original language, and a translated form adapted to the other user's primary language.

Example

User A has a primary language of Spanish User B has a primary language of French

  • User A says "Hola".
  • User B receives "Hola" but can toggle a switch to see "Bonjour".

Each user has a list of contacts, current chats, and list of friend requests incoming and pending friend requests outgoing.

Users may invite friends to the platform via email that we've implemented using SendGrid.
