1. Why WhatsApp Matters To All Developers
WhatsApp is a well-known chat application many people use to send billions of messages daily.
The fact that WhatsApp is an application that is easy to install on your mobile phone, you can use it on your computer, and it is free to send and receive messages optionally with video and audio, made WhatsApp an excellent alternative to SMS messages that used to be very popular between people that used mobile phones many years ago.
Furthermore, as a developer, you can quickly add WhatsApp chat buttons to your sites. Suddenly, you have provided a good way for your sites to support your users without paying the cost of installing a more complex chat system.
If you check the bottom right corner of this page, you can see support buttons to contact us at the PHP Classes site using WhatsApp, Facebook messenger, or email. It just took us adding a few lines of HTML and JavaScript to provide this contact form.
Many PHP Classes site users contact us daily to ask support questions and get fast responses (when we are not too busy with some other activity).
Soon I will publish a simple PHP class to let you also add simple support chat using WhatsApp to your sites for free.
2. What Will Be This New WhatsApp Developer Tool
Some time ago, the Meta group made the WhatsApp API accessible to many developers without paying high fees.
This way, developers can use the API to implement applications that send and receive to other WhatsApp users.
When this article was written, we did not yet know what such a tool would be. Still, the Meta group has a podcast for WhatsApp developers.
In one of the latest episodes, they give hints about what that application will be. You may watch the podcast recording in the video below.
