Hi,
I am not sure what kind of messaging you'd like to implement in your app. Generally speaking, you would only need a plugin in case you need to access a native mobile API (iOS, Android or Windows Phone API) to control a native device functionality.
If you need to create a kind-of-a-messaging board, you can have a look at the Friends hybrid app. If you need to implement a real-life-chat functionality, you'll need to find a JavaScript API that supports your requirements. For instance you can have a look at this post as it describes how to use socket.io and a node.js server to implement Cordova-based chat apps.
If you want to use a native social sharing app, you can have a look at the SocialSharing plugin as it allows users to:
Please consider the above options and let me know if you have more questions.

- share calendar events or pdf documents via email,
- send prefilled WhatsApp or SMS messages.

Hello,
In order to use Socket.io in your AppBuilder project, you need to reference the socket.IO client API from their CDN for instance:

Hi
I also have in mind to implement a message/chat system. I got stuck on http://framework.realtime.co/messaging/
