Strophe.js
Strophe.js is a JavaScript library for speaking XMPP via BOSH
(XEP 124
and XEP 206) and WebSockets
(RFC 7395).
It runs in both NodeJS and in web browsers, and its purpose is to enable real-time
XMPP applications.

Support in different environments
Browsers
Versions <= 1.2.16 have been tested on Firefox, Firefox for Android, IE, Safari,
Mobile Safari, Chrome, Chrome for Android, Opera and the mobile Opera browser.
Since version 1.3.0, support for IE < 11 has been dropped.
React Native
Since version 1.6.0 the WebCrypto
API (included by default in Browsers and NodeJS) is used for crypto primitives
such as hashing and signatures.
Unfortunately this API is not available in React Native, and integrators will
need to look for a 3rd party implementations of this API if they want to use
Strophe there.
Running tests
You can run npm run test, or alternatively if you have GNU Make available,
you can run make check.
