Scope

  • Technology: React Native
  • Version: v4
  • Files changed: 59

What was improved

  • Quick Reference blocks added (code snippets in <Info> blocks at the top of each page)
  • Description frontmatter added (SEO-friendly description field in YAML front matter)
  • "Available via" notes on feature/component pages (SDK / REST API / UI Kit cross-links)
  • Next Steps (CardGroup) on all pages
  • Tab naming standardized (JavaScript / TypeScript / TypeScript (User) / TypeScript (Group))
  • Cross-links between related pages
  • Security warnings on init/login pages
  • Best Practices and Troubleshooting accordion sections added to key pages
  • Sentence clarity, grammar, and developer readability improved across all 59 files
  • Real console output samples added with collapsible <Accordion> blocks for:
    • CometChat.init() (setup-sdk.mdx)
    • CometChat.login() — UID and Auth Token flows (authentication-overview.mdx)
    • CometChat.logout() (authentication-overview.mdx)
    • CometChat.sendMessage() — text message (send-message.mdx, messaging-overview.mdx)
    • CometChat.sendMediaMessage() — by file, by URL, and multiple attachments (send-message.mdx)
    • CometChat.sendCustomMessage() (send-message.mdx)
    • CometChat.addMessageListener() — onTextMessageReceived, onMediaMessageReceived, onCustomMessageReceived (receive-messages.mdx, messaging-overview.mdx)
  • All sample output payloads use real SDK response structures (not fabricated/placeholder data)
  • User tags arrays cleaned to empty [] in all sample outputs to avoid confusion
  • Duplicate rawMessage field stripped from all sample outputs for readability
  • Failure examples use realistic error codes (ERR_NOT_LOGGED_IN)

Sample output status

  • Done: init, login (UID + Auth Token), logout, sendMessage, sendMediaMessage (file / URL / multiple), sendCustomMessage, addMessageListener (text / media / custom received)
  • Not yet done: fetchNext (missed messages), fetchPrevious (unread messages / message history), unread count methods, and all other SDK pages beyond messaging and auth

What was NOT changed

  • No existing content, code examples, or screenshots removed
  • No section headings renamed
  • No section order changed
  • No framework-specific guides removed
  • No API names, parameters, or technical details modified

Verification

  • Local preview — all pages render
  • Blind walkthrough — overview to first chat
  • Diff review — no accidental deletions
  • AI sample app test — AI followed docs successfully
  • Link check — all internal links resolve

Notes for reviewers

  • Sample console outputs for fetchNext, fetchPrevious, unread count methods, and remaining SDK methods are pending — real logs need to be captured and added in a follow-up pass.
  • All sample outputs currently added were captured from a real React Native app running CometChat SDK
  • The messaging-overview.mdx page was enhanced with inline accordion samples for the two Quick Reference methods (sendMessage and addMessageListener) to give developers immediate visibility into response shapes.
