      Another but also Javascript based option that seems promising (but still needs a bit of work) is this:
      https://github.com/nioc/xmpp-web

      It is even PWA capable, so on Android for example it works quite nicely as a progressive web app already. I hope PWA will be added to UT at some point, as it is really a neat standard for webapps.

          Hi @mito77 can you explain better what you mean with "can't connect"? What XMPP server are you using? If it is self-hosted, make sure it is up to date and configured to expose BOSH or websockets as alternative connection methodes. Due to the webapp nature of ConverseJS you can not connect with the regular 5222 port as Conversations/Gajim etc. does.

            @poVoq thank you . it work very good with bosh or wss link . I found on the wiki of the xmpp service. but ConverseJS dont save my login, and don't save my wss or my bosh. When I
            restart the app it's blank . https://wiki.jabberfr.org/JabberFR
            it's because the client don't have XEP-0156 natively

              @mito77 the wss and bosh address is saved in the app, just not displayed again in the form field.

              However you need to put in again your JID and password each time. I have some ideas how to add an option to stay logged in, but doing so (with the option to also log out again) is a bit complicated.

              Xep-0156 is supported in the new upstream version of ConverseJS. I need to get around updating my app to it.

                Hi Povoq I'm reconnected again and again on a muc, and the error message is : "This groupchat has reached its maximum number of participants". Or we are three people in the muc chatroom.

                  @mito77 this isn't really a support thread, and in any case that sounds more like a upstream ConverseJS issue. But what is the actual limit you set? I think in XMPP each connected device is counted as a user, even if representing only three actual people. Maybe there is an issue that devices are recognized as new while the old ones need some time to time out? No idea, just guessing 🙂

                    @poVoq Is it possible to implement port 5222 support?

                      Sorry, with ConverseJS that is not possible.

                      What should work is Movim, as it proxies the websocket connection to port 5222.

                      I might look into making a new Movim app, as the old one isn't maintained. But I think it still works.
