    Dependency Changes

    • 💥 Breaking Change The dependency MessageInputBar was replaced with InputBarAccessoryView. As MessageInputBar was previously a fork this means no functionality has been lost but improvements and bug fixes will be present. InputBarAccessoryView has more of a following outside of MessageKit making its development faster than MessageInputBar. Maintaining two versions only increased the workload.
