I am starting with hotwire, and I think I am like most and it is not knowing how to use the tool well, now I am curious I have seen the ruby videos how to create chat with hotwire, but all the examples and even the documentation are more for ruby, ¿ is there any example of how to create a chat without ruby?

A Java/SpringBoot (up through a working stimulus controller @ 6:40 of the demo video) is here: [GitHub - mbucc/hotwire-demo-chat-in-springboot: Convert the demo video in Hotwire launch from Ruby to SpringBoot](https://github.com/mbucc/hotwire-demo-chat-in-springboot).
