Whatsapp Clone

After completing my To Do List app, I have made a whatsapp clone based on the popular messaging app. This really highlights how much there is to learn for me, there are a lot of areas of the development I don't yet understand.

To Do List App

Lately I have been learning some foundation app development using Meteor Blaze, Javascript, HTML and CSS.
