Messenger side project

I hope this falls under guidelines and is in the correct area. Right now I am working on my own messenger application named Retro Messenger (or RM) for short, a C++ messenger focused on security and privacy. It is ‘memory only’, not using a database. It instead opts to use computer memory to store messages, eliminating the possibility of a database breach of private conversations (which feels sort of common these days). It also allows file sharing, and I hope to add plenty more additions like online games and more utilities. I’d love to know what you all think :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Looks pretty cool :slight_smile:

I’m guessing it might require OpenGL to work? I’m on remote desktop at the moment and I get this error when starting the executable:

---------------------------
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
---------------------------
Assertion failed!

Program: ...
File: C:/Users/-----/OneDrive/Desktop/.../imgui_...gl3.cpp
Line: 421

Expression: bd != nullptr && "Context or backend not initialized! Did you call ImGui_ImplOpenGL3_Init()?"

For information on how your program can cause an assertion
failure, see the Visual C++ documentation on asserts

Thank you so much ^^

Dang, I haven’t run into that before. I’ll have to investigate that, thanks for bringing it to my attention.
