Last spring our superhero intern Martin (now a full time member of Team PubNub) created a comprehensive blog series on building a full featured chat app with Angular JS. Along the way he completely overhauled the PubNub Angular SDK and paved the way for Angular 2. Here it is, your complete guide to building a chat app with AngularJS. You’ll learn how to send and receive messages, build a beautiful message history with infinite scrolling, add a list of users with indicators for presents and typing, and secure access with OAuth.
