Project: Rocket.Chat
License: MIT (Community Edition)
Attribution: The domain model and entity schemas in the zrocket application were inspired by Rocket.Chat's messaging platform architecture. While we don't use Rocket.Chat as a dependency, their open-source codebase provided valuable insights into:
- Message entity structure and relationships
- Room/channel architecture
- User and subscription models
- Real-time collaboration patterns
What we adapted:
- Entity relationship patterns for messages, rooms, and users
- Schema design for chat-based applications
- Concepts around subscriptions and presence
Links:
Note: No code from Rocket.Chat was directly copied. We studied their domain model and reimplemented concepts independently to fit our Zero-based architecture.
