Right now when you're in a chat room, you have no idea if someone else is typing a message.
It makes the conversation feel kind of dead.
most chat apps show a "User is typing..." indicator. Would be cool to add that here.
How it could work:
- when someone types in the message box, send a WebSocket event like
user_typing
- show "SomeUser is typing..." at the bottom of the chat
- clear it after 3 seconds of no typing or when they send the message
Not critical but would make the chat feel way more alive. Thoughts?
