NetEase is one of the largest and earliest instant messaging (IM) developers in China. From NetEase POPO to EasyChat, NetEase has accumulated a lot of experience in communication technology for over 20 years. With those products that have high stability and reliability in communication capability, developers can integrate the IM feature into APPs at lower costs.

Cocos2d-x SDK enables game developers to conveniently develop IM features that CommsEase offer. Currently, developers can only implement IM features on the Windows, Android, and iOS by using C++.
