Customizing your Webchat endpoint has been made easy with Webchat v3, as it offers a lot of new settings. Here you can find the list of endpoint settings. information on further styling customization can be found in the guide on applying custom CSS to the Webchat.
You need an installed version of Node.js to build your Webchat. Clone this repository, then run npm i and npm run bundle within the root folder to install dependencies and create bundle files in dist/.
For development purposes, you can utilize npm run dev. This command spawns an HTTP server on port 8080, showcasing the current form of the webchat directly from the source code. It automatically reloads upon updating source files, simplifying the development process.
