Development Guidelines

Chat provides a rich UI component library, including TUIKit, which focuses on chat interactions, and TUICallKit, which works with TRTC. Using the UI component library, you can quickly build an app avoiding the tedious UI development.
Chat also supports various features, such as cloud review, an integrated online/offline push solution, intelligent customer service, intelligent robots, etc.
You can get a general idea of Chat and its derived capabilities through the diagram below:



If you are accessing Chat for the first time, we recommend:
1. If you need a UI, you can choose from the UI components close to your business for a quick start, such as TUIKit and TUICallKit.
2. If you have already implemented your own UI and only need Chat capabilities, you can integrate the Chat SDK alone without UI.
Below, we will explain the access steps of different components in turn.

TUIKit

TUIKit is a UI component library based on Tencent Cloud Chat SDK. It offers a number of general-purpose UI components, including session, chat, search, relationship chain, group, and audio and video call features. You can use these components to quickly build your own business logic, similar to assembling blocks.
Taking the mobile app as an example, TUIKit offers 3 styles of interfaces:
Minimalist Edition, similar to the WhatsApp interface style.
Classic Edition, similar to the WeChat interface style.
RTL Language, supports Arabic, reading from right to left.
Classic Edition, similar to the WeChat style.

TUICallKit

TUICallKit is an audio and video call UI component that uses the Chat SDK's signaling, chat, user status, and other features.
Taking mobile as an example, the main features of TUICallKit are shown in the following figure:
