Forked from the web-based IRC client Subway.
This will be the webapp we'll use on lug.utdallas.edu. It features a persistent connection ability and great basic IRC features.
- Continued UI overhaul
- Change irc connection type to SSL
- Fix so that it focuses on '#utdlug' chan instead of 'Status' on resume
Subway is a combination of two projects that started independently with a similar technology stack and similar aims:
- subway-web / subway-server by David Petersen
- web-irc by Aaron Kavlie
Its goals are twofold:
- Become the best web-based IRC client available
- Provide a really easy method of persistent IRC connections, available from any web browser
The inspiration for Subway was trying to watch a fellow programmer try to explain how to set up screen/irssi to a non-technical person.
Major Subway contributors include:
- David Petersen, developer
- Aaron Kavlie, developer
- Eric Barch, developer
- HyeonJe Jun, developer
- Jamie Soar, notification sounds
- Yusuke Kamiyamane, some icons
The logo right now is a Gowalla icon, we are not planning on keeping this, we are only planning on using it as a placeholder
