Radosław Gierwiało 4a91a10aff feat(chat): add 2000 character limit for messages
Added message length validation to prevent spam and improve UX with
character counter feedback.

Backend:
- Added MESSAGE_MAX_LENGTH constant (2000 characters)
- Validation in send_event_message handler:
  - Check if content is string
  - Check if not empty after trim
  - Check if not exceeding max length
- Validation in send_match_message handler (same checks)
- Returns error message if validation fails

Frontend:
- Added MESSAGE_MAX_LENGTH constant (2000 characters)
- ChatInput component enhancements:
  - maxLength attribute on input (hard limit)
  - Character counter shows when >80% of limit
  - Counter turns red when at limit
  - Submit button disabled when at limit
  - Counter format: "X/2000"

UX:
- User sees counter at 1600+ characters (80% of limit)
- Hard limit prevents typing beyond 2000 chars
- Clear visual feedback (red text) when at limit
- Consistent validation on both event and match chats

Security:
- Prevents spam with extremely long messages
- Protects against potential DoS via message size
- Database already uses TEXT type (supports limit)

React + Vite

This template provides a minimal setup to get React working in Vite with HMR and some ESLint rules.

Currently, two official plugins are available:

React Compiler

The React Compiler is not enabled on this template because of its impact on dev & build performances. To add it, see this documentation.

Expanding the ESLint configuration

If you are developing a production application, we recommend using TypeScript with type-aware lint rules enabled. Check out the TS template for information on how to integrate TypeScript and typescript-eslint in your project.
