MVP 7 Mentions

[yenda]

Problem

• As a user, I want to be able to mention other users in the chat
• As a user, I want to have a way to easily notice when I have been mentioned in a chat

Design

Figma for mentions
Figma for notifications

Implementation

There is two ways to implement this feature.

Keywords

A user could specify a list of keywords that would be used in a regexp search to check if they are contained in the messages that are received. Keywords will be highlighted in chats

The search needs to be done upon reception of each message

Real mentions

When mentioning someone using his public key, username or random username, the mention is replaced by the public key of the user. In the chat people will see the random name by default or the username corresponding to the public key if they know it. If it is the user public key that his mention it will be highlighted.

Mentions are sent as a separate field in the message.

Acceptance Criteria

• use cases and designs are implemented

Rachel Hamlin considering this discuss post. Perhaps mentions need to be higher on the priority list. Seems like a first step to #viral #dapp #mentions
