Private message chat with node.js

I’m using node.js to develop a webapp to add to my portfolio. So, I want it to have a built-in private chat message system and I was wondering, as the chat feature isn’t really important itself in the app and would take me a lot of time to write it from zero, and since the app its mostly for show, should I reinvent the wheel and code it myself or are there already any chats that other developers are already using that I could implement right away?
Btw, this chat feature I’m talking about doesn’t have to be in real time.
As always, thank you guys for reading!
