Kwel-vrae

Are messages stored in a DB? Do you use websockets or long polling?

Yeah, messages are stored in the DB, and communication to front end via pusher api (I think they use we sockets under the hood).

Is it for admin & user/subscriber chat, or can any subscriber chat with this tool among them? I mean, a chat like FB chat?

With this release (1.0.0), anyone logged in can chat, but I will add an input to select the roles to exclude from chat in the next minor release.
