Hello, I am a backend engineer working on a multi-tenant web app project with Django+JS. 🙂 I have started to use the Video SDK pureJS sample in my application and I have also tried the UItoolkit as i am exploring at this stage what i can do. Both are working well, i can join sessions in both cases which is great ✅. I notice that the Video SDK doesnt come with a chat implementation whereas the UItoolkit does but I am not sure if we can customize it. I am clear on which design and feature I would need: basically a chat as a right banner and also renders all participants video on the screen. > Is it possible to build on top of the UItoolkit and therefore benefit from its already implemented features or copy some features’implemenation to integrate them in the VideoSDK? > More broadly speaking, is there a repository available of a fully functionnal and customizable VideoSDK (with chat & other features) that is open source or that we can buy ? Kind regards, Luca ---

Hi @luca_del , Excited to hear bout you building with the Video SDK. To see a more broad build-out of the SDK’s features, please check out the [sample application](https://github.com/zoom/videosdk-web-sample/tree/master/react-demo), specifically the react-demo (this should be within the same repo as the `purejs` example you mentioned). In regards to the UItoolkit, you can add the chat feature to your application using it. You’d want to follow the [documentation](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/video-sdk/web/chat/) to see how to get started with implementing chat. Thanks, Rehema ---

Hello @rehema.zoom , Thank you for your answer, You mentionned it is possible to build the chat feature using the Uitoolkit, does it mean there is a repository available where we can see the code. When we install it, we get a prebuilt version, so i am not sure we can do it ? Regarding the ReactDemo you referred to, when watching the zoom tutorial, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3eF4W91Gys](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3eF4W91Gys), I see the React version is more or less the same as the PureJS (only 2 videos rendered: 1 participant video and our video and no chat box. The question i am wondering is, is there a version of the Video SDK that is more functionnal and ready to use ? Or would there be a plan to acquire such a version ? Kind regards, Luca ---
