## What it is
ChatKit-OC is a free, open-source iOS chat UI component library built on LeanCloud's IM service, providing ready-made recent-contacts and chat screens with text, voice, image, and location messaging. The project is officially deprecated and no longer maintained; LeanCloud now offers a Swift SDK-based Chat Demo instead.

## Use cases
- add a chat interface to an iOS app
- build a recent contacts list with unread counts
- send and receive voice, image, and location messages
- integrate LeanCloud IM with push notifications
- implement group chat and message roaming on iOS
- quickly prototype an instant messaging app

## When to choose
- you are maintaining a legacy Objective-C iOS app already built on LeanCloud IM
- you need a reference implementation of LeanCloud's realtime messaging APIs in Objective-C

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new project - use the Swift SDK Chat Demo instead
- you need customizable message types like red packets or business cards
- you require heavy UI customization, which ChatKit does not support
- you want a maintained library with ongoing bug fixes
