I am trying to create a chat system in my app using stream chat. I have a basic chatroom made, but now I am stuck on how to generate tokens for users. Following the stream-chat documentation (https://getstream.io/chat/docs/react/tokens_and_authentication/), it seems that I have to add some code to my backend service (appwrite), but I am not sure how or what code I should even provide. I believe creating a function is the way to do it, but I am not sure how to properly set that up as well.
For further context, I am following this video tutorial to set up the messaging/chat system within my app: https://www.youtube.com/live/UxSdy3oOnIw?si=89YvS30ZILtlU4lF
Any help is greatly appreciated!
