Java

Congratulations! You've finished the 'Basic text chat' tutorial.
You can continue to play with and adjust the code you've developed here for the client-side of your application, but keep in mind that you'll need to implement the server component of your application before going to production (see Server SDKs below).

Next Steps

When you're finished here, continue building and enhancing your Vonage Video application with these helpful resources:

  • Server SDKs — Before going to production, you'll need to set up a server to generate credentials]
  • Video API Basics — If you haven't already, take a few minutes to learn exactly how Vonage Video works
  • Visit the guides section for detailed documentation on all Vonage Video features and functionality
  • Visit the tutorials section for walkthroughs on implementing other Vonage Video features and use cases
  • Android SDK reference — explore the methods and events associated with the Android SDK
