- herbst 11y agoDont use PHP for that ;) Python is always a good language for Networking (Java too, but Python is cuter) This SO answer should have some directions for you: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30604192/creating-a-real-time-chat-with-python-and-websocket https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30604192/creating-a-real...
- kimmy13 11y agoThank you for the answer, I can use this solution with Google app engine right? I really hate php I try to don't use it at all ! I really don't know if XMPP that is built in google app engine can help us create a chat app or no.

- kimmy13 11y agoI understand but really the problem is how I can integrate this webapp with my android app for example in : Google app engine and android=> I can use google endpoints to get data.
