Salesforce Enhanced In App Chat for Expo

This module creates a drop-in solution for integration of Salesforce Enhanced In App Chat. Install it via npm, update plugins configuration and then trigger the chat from within the React parts of your Expo app.

Configuration (in app.json, app.plugin.js or similar):

"plugins": [
  [
    "expo-salesforce-enhanced-in-app-chat",
    {
      "OrganizationId": "",
      "DeveloperName": "",
      "Url": ""
    }
  ]
]

Usage from JavaScript / TypeScript (Expo):

import { requireNativeModule } from 'expo-modules-core';

const NativeModule = requireNativeModule('SalesforceEnhancedInAppChatModule');

// call the native `open` method - perhaps from Pressable
NativeModule.open();

I used multiple AI tools to help me with Kotlin and Swift. I must single out Gemini. It was helpless with Swift code but overall helped a lot!
