Description

@mrsumanbiswas

Allow users to edit a sent message within a short time window (e.g., 15 minutes).

Backend

  • PUT /api/messages/:id – update the content and set an edited_at timestamp
  • Enforce time limit and sender ownership

Frontend

  • Long‑press → “Edit” option (only if within time limit)
  • Show an inline editing view with the current text
  • After saving, display “(edited)” next to the message timestamp
  • Update the message in real time for the recipient via WebSocket

Keep it simple; no history of edits needed for now.
