Getting Started with Comty.JS

https://github.com/ragestudio/comty.js

Welcome to Comty.JS, the official JavaScript library for interacting with the Comty API! This library is designed to simplify communication with Comty services, whether you're building a server-side application or a client-side interface.

What is Comty.JS?

Comty.JS provides a convenient wrapper around the Comty API, handling authentication, request management, real-time communication via WebSockets, and more. It aims to make your development process smoother and more efficient by abstracting away the complexities of direct API interaction.

Key Features:

• Simplified API Access: Easy-to-use models for various Comty services like Authentication, Posts, User Management, Music, Chats, and more.
• Authentication Handling: Built-in support for server keys and user token-based authentication, including automatic token refresh.
• WebSocket Integration: Seamlessly connect to Comty's real-time services.
• Addon System: Extend the library's functionality with custom addons.
• Environment Aware: Works in both Node.js (server-side) and browser (client-side) environments.
• Request Management: Uses axios for HTTP requests with interceptors for automatic token attachment and error handling.

Who is this for?

This library is for developers who want to:

• Integrate their JavaScript or TypeScript applications with Comty.
• Build features that utilize Comty's social, music, or other platform functionalities.
• Quickly set up communication with the Comty API without dealing with raw HTTP requests and WebSocket management.

Next Steps

1. Installing Comty.JS: Learn how to add the library to your project.
2. Client Initialization: Understand how to set up and configure the Comty.JS client.
3. Authentication: Dive into how authentication works with Comty.JS.
