 INTRODUCTION
The aim of this project is to build a functional real-time messaging application for developers by
using modern web technologies.

Unlike most chat applications available in the market, this one will focus on developers and will
attempt to boost their productivity. Although we are not expecting it to have a plethora of utilities
due to the limited time frame, sharing code and watching a repository will be our core features.

It will be fully open-source. Everyone will be able to dig into the code to read what is going on
behind the scenes, or even contribute to the source code. So it was within our intentions to
write clean, scalable code following the most popular patterns and conventions for each of the
languages and relevant libraries.

One of the primary use of CHATTY is messaging. Just like other social apps, you have a
list of conversations that you’re engaged in. This feature is pivotal as you can add people in
a variety of ways aside the conventional way of details collection. When fully operational,
you will be amazed how individuals will have to scan their phones during details
collection.

Messaging apps now have more global users than traditional social networks—which
mean they will play an increasingly important role in the distribution of digital
information in the future. In 2016, over 2.5 billion people used at least one messaging
app. That’s one-third of the world’s entire population, with users ranging from various
age grades. Today, it’s common place for offices to use a messaging app for internal
communication in order to coordinate meetings, share pitch decks, and plan happy
hours. And with the latest bot technology, chat apps are becoming a hub for employees
to do work in their apps without leaving the chat console. For many people, chat apps
are a given part of their workday. But how did these chat apps become so popular?

 2.2.4 INDUSTRY CHALLENGES

1. FRAGMENTATION: The social media landscape is entering a period of hyper-

fragmentation that may be a challenge to publishers: Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram
continue to loom large, but social media managers can now launch official channels on
roughly 10 chat apps with over 50 million monthly, active users each.

2. ANALYTICS: For organizations accustomed to robust, real-time data, the lack of good
analytics tools for messaging apps remains a major deterrent to adoption. The challenge is
twofold: Strong analytics dashboards take time to build, and many messengers are privacy-
centric by nature.

2.2.5 INDUSTRY OPPORTUNITIES

1. HIGHER ENGAGEMENT: Since many chat apps provide publishers with push
notifications or chatbot experiences (programmable robots that converse with users), they
can deliver significantly higher engagement rates.

2. AUDIENCE DEVELOPMENT: With billions of active users across multiple major chat
apps, there is the opportunity in building large audiences fairly quickly on several
platforms.

3. A CHANCE TO CONNECT WITH USERS IN A NEW WAY: Messaging apps offer

a host of features not unavailable on social networks or other platforms. Programmers can
creatively leverage these tools to socialize in new ways.

2.1 Related Work
2.1.1 WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS

Predictions are always prone to inevitable ridicule and failure, but there are some that are
worth making.

2.1.1.1 THE GROWING IMPORTANCE OF SECURITY, CIRCUMVENTION,

AND DATA RESTRICTIONS

As government snooping, personal privacy, and security become issues for many people
globally, those living in countries where these are particular concerns will increasingly
look for platforms that enable them to both communicate securely and receive accurate
information, unfiltered by government censors.

2.1.1.2 THE EMERGENCE OF REGIONALIZED AND LOCAL MESSAGING-

APP ECOSYSTEMS

This is the era to launch CHATTY as it focuses on specific target audience in Africa.

2.1.1.3 MESSAGING WILL BECOME LIKE ELECTRICITY

While messaging is currently a clearly defined function of specific apps, the future is likely
to be one wherein the capability is baked-in to nearly all digital technologies and services.
The point where a messaging app begins and ends will begin to blur. Already, app
classification is getting trickier, especially as social media platforms update their in-app
messaging capabilities, moving them closer to chat app experiences.

Figure 4.1: Registration for new member

To register a new user, Chatty app require the using to provide their email and phone
number. It checks if the phone number or email already has a user in the database, if it
doesn’t the user is then taken to a screen where they fill in their details which include full
name, date of birth and a short description of themselves. The user is then asked to confirm
their email and phone number through the email message or SMS sent to them which
contains a verification code link to their account

20
Sign- up Method

You have choose your any one email address and sign-up new account.

21
Adding Friends

Figure 4.3: Adding Friends

Adding friends through the chatty app can be done by clicking floating button at the bottom
right corner of the app which after giving the app permission brings a list of all your
contact list saved on your mobile phone.

4.6.4 Chat Form

Figure 4.4: Chat Form

The Chat Form hold and displays the current conversation going on between two users of
the app, this conversation is not saved locally or on a live server, so a new session is created
for every new instance in time. The chat form has two main items which are the message
areas which on-going conversations can be seen and the chat form which carry an input
field to send new messages area.

23
Account Setting

Figure 4.5: Account Setting

Using the Account settings is very simple and clear, as there are not too many functions on it. The

DISCUSSION, CONCLUSION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The project successfully delivered on all requirement specification specified by the user.
Care was ensured during the design to make sure data integrity is maintained and to
avoid all forms of redundancies associated with data.

The user is assured a very friendly interface, behind which there are wide ranging
technical details that went in. The user guide is a mere formality because, the project was
specially created bearing in mind interaction and designs that would make users feel as
though they have used a system such as this.

This project has also been built in such a manner that future changes or modifications that
are required can easily be implemented without affecting the functionality of the system.
This project is used on android environment, and can be used on any version so it can be
used by individuals with different levels of android devices. The technical document that
is provided in the report of this project will help developers understand the internal
workings of the system.

5.1 Objective Assessment

After building the system, I achieved these objectives:
• I was able to develop a multi lingual chat application
• I was able to develop an interactive system that incorporated Pidgin
English into chatting
I was able to evaluate the existing literature of instant messaging

27
5.2 Limitations and Challenges
The following challenges were observed after development of this system
• Only registered users can use the system

• Internet must be available to use the application

• There must be minimum of two users per time for interactive chatting

5.3 Future Enhancements

• Video calls will be added

• Voice recording can be added

• Enhancing different text style and font size

• Introduction of animations

• Instant document attachment

5.4 Recommendations
Research done in regard to this project, coupled with the fact that we now live in a world
that everything is now becoming digitalized, the following recommendations were derived:
• The development of chat application shouldn’t and wouldn’t stop
here, constant improvement and research needs to be conducted to
make sure it is in line with best technology practices.

• The development of local content chatting application should be

encouraged as this will help improve the economy bas of Nigeria.

• Every class of the societal stratification should be encouraging to use

this localized chatting application as it improves our education
standard and exposure to the outside world.

28
Conclusion

Messaging apps now have more global users than traditional social networks—which
mean they will play an increasingly important role in the distribution of information in the
future. While chat platforms initially rose to prominence by offering a low-cost, web-
based alternative to SMS, over time they evolved into multimedia hubs that support
photos, videos, games, payments, and more. To harness the growing population of Africa
in general and Nigeria in particular was the introduction of the Pidgen English chatting
leverage, which is unique in its own right.
