An open source alternative to Intercom/Drift/etc
Hi everyone!
A buddy and I recently started working on Papercups with the goal of building an open source Intercom competitor 
We’re pretty new to Elixir, but it just seemed like the perfect tool for the job. We’ve been having a lot of fun with it lately, but would love to get feedback from more seasoned Elixir devs!
Here’s a demo of our chat widget if you want to play around with it https://app.papercups.io/demo
We also have some Github issues set up if you want to contribute
Excited to be a part of such a great community!

We just released our Flutter client GitHub - papercups-io/papercups_flutter: Papercups.io Flutter chat widget · GitHub would love any feedback

Very nice!
Thought about XMPP support? We currently use Olark for live chat and Adium (on Mac) as client software. This way we don’t have to have the chat as a browser window AND we don’t have to live with the (currently) crappy chat software that some of the other provides have created.
We can simply use standardised XMPP clients.
We’re looking to migrate from Olark because of its crappy loading times (PageSpeed/Lighthouse).
