• Control Message Feed
  Set initial Chat messages and display new ones with the items array, renderMessage method, or dataSource CRUD operations. Use onMessageEntered to define actions after a message is entered.

• Typing Status
  Typing triggers typingStart, while stopping or sending a message raises typingEnd. Use these events to manage the typingUsers array, indicating who is typing in the Chat.

• UI Customization
  Customize Chat messages with messageTemplate. Display runtime issues with the alerts array. Control UI elements with properties like showAvatar, and adjust date/time formats with options like messageTimestampFormat.
