1. Sticky Navigation:

• Input field that accepts return key as submit
  • Can also be done through the User Input
• Button to clear message board (last 20 messages)
• Themes button that brings up modal

1. Options and Themes:

• Accessibility: Dark theme applies to whole body, large text applies to message field. These should be controlled by checkboxes.
• Themes: User has optional theme selection by toggling different selections. These should be controlled by radiobuttons.

1. Message Module:

• Default Messages: Load 5 base messages from JSON files.
• Option to delete individual button: when the delete button next to a message is clicked, only that message should be removed from the DOM.
• Only show the last 20 messages.
• Timestamp: Put a timestamp on each message.

1. Multiple Users:

• Users should be imported to DOM through private array.
• Next to the message input box, there should be an option to select user posting message.

Technologies Used:

1. CSS: Themes, Boostrap Overrides, Basic Styling
2. Bootstrap: Nav, Modals, Buttons
3. JQuery: Modals for Bootsrap
4. JavaScript: IIFE and augmentation, XHR, JSON, Event Listeners, DOM Manipulation

Final Result:

"Chat Room" where users are able to send messages from their specific username, edit their messages, receive replies from an AI and customize their themes.
