The tutorial app consists of two screens:

• MainActivity: Shows the list of available channels.
• ChannelActivity: Shows the selected channel view, which includes the header, message list, and message input view.

ChannelActivity follows the published tutorial step-by-step and includes a colors customization on ChatTheme. Three additional ChannelActivity* implementations show alternative customization techniques and screen compositions. To try one, point MainActivity's onChannelClick at it:

onChannelClick = { channel ->
    startActivity(ChannelActivity4.getIntent(this, channel.cid))
},

You can choose from three alternative ChannelActivity implementations:

• ChannelActivity2 - customizes typography via ChatTheme
• ChannelActivity3 - uses bound and stateless components to build the chat screen
• ChannelActivity4 - uses a custom message composer component
