Node js for XMPP?

I want to create instant messaging for a mobile application like whatsapp , with nodejs as my backend. I went through the XMPP protocols and read the xmpp.org documentation.

I referred to the link , and I can create some of the core XMPP strong> features, such as creating and messaging users. But I still cannot implement the full XMPP functionality in nodejs .

So: are there node js libaries to create the full functionality of the xmpp protocol, such as asmack ? Alternatively, how do I send calls to the XMPP server via XML ?

XMPP is the standard for messaging. But it is unclear how Node will help you better than an installed library on another platform. Node makes it easy to make scalable web socket applications that work much better using JSON instead of XML. Therefore, it is possible that you want to create an IM application for web sockets in Node, as well as implement the XMPP interface.
