## What it is
A framework-neutral chat web component plus a typed Vue 3 component library providing rooms, messages, files, audio, reactions, replies, edits, typing indicators, themes, and localization. It is backend-agnostic, so you bring your own data layer (e.g., Firestore).

## Use cases
- add a chat UI to a Vue 3 app
- embed a chat widget in React or Angular via web component
- build group chat rooms with reactions and replies
- add typing indicators and message editing to my app
- create a chat interface with file and audio message support
- theme and localize a chat component

## When to choose
- you need a full-featured, customizable chat UI without building it from scratch
- you use Vue 3 and want typed SFC components with composables
- you want a framework-neutral web component for React/Angular/vanilla apps
- you want to own your backend and data layer

## When to avoid
- you need a fully hosted chat service with backend included
- you are on Vue 2 and cannot migrate (use the legacy vue-advanced-chat v2 package instead)
- you need a drop-in upgrade from v2 — V3 is not API-compatible
- you require a UMD/CommonJS build in a bundler — V3 is ESM-only
