Friends - Overview

Overview Code

The Beamable Friends feature allows players to connect with other players and manage friendships through various social interactions. Players can send friend invites, view pending invites, cancel invites, reject invites, accept invites, view friends, remove friends, block players, and unblock players.

The Friends feature is accessible via the BeamContext object, and is a code-first solution.
