##About

ThirdPlace.js is a library which abstracts some of the concepts of the SE Chat system (the "Third Place") into easy to use JavaScript objects. It's still very much a work in progress, but it is functional. When complete, almost all parts of chat should have ThirdPlace objects associated with them, allowing others to create event-driven UserScripts without having to reverse-engineer chat. For example, running code when a user enters / leaves a room, when messages are posted / edited, when notifications happen, etc, will all be as simple as observing events on ThirdPlace. In addition, posting/editing messages, joining rooms, and more will all be able to be done through a simple set of objects. (See code sample)
