[DX-629] Add Chat React API references by m-hulbert · Pull Request #3272 · ably/docs

m-hulbert · 2026-03-12T19:25:58Z

Description

This PR adds an API reference for Chat in React using the new NestedTable and MethodSignature components. It should have parity with the TypeDoc references.

There is 1 commit per file, however I haven't yet updated the references in the conceptual content to point to these references yet to keep this PR smaller for review feedback. I will add that as a final commit once we are happy with this content.
