React Native BukanMessenger Demo When telegram had been officially banned in my Country, it make me really disappointed and sad. Why such a good should be banned just because of unreasonable thing. technology So I decided to make something similarly to telegram, and I think it must be an Open Source one! Although I believe it still far away from Telegram. But ofc we or you can make it better and better in the future!! Btw, It’s called “BukanMessenger”. I hope with “BukanMessenger”, people could build their own Messenger easily.
