Tom Camp, DevRel Engineer at Ably takes you through a tutorial of adding an avatar stack to your application using Ably's latest product, Spaces.

An avatar stack is a visual representation of a user’s presence - showing them as online and connected. They are the most common way of showing the online status of members in an application by displaying an avatar for each member. Events are emitted whenever a member enters or leaves a space, or updates their profile data.
