WhatsApp Chat Log to HTML Converter

This Python script converts WhatsApp chat logs from _chat.txt files into formatted HTML files. It processes the chat logs to display messages and attachments in a readable format, assigning unique colors to different users and creating clickable thumbnails for images and videos.

Features

• Color-Coded Messages: Each user is assigned a unique color for their messages, ensuring easy distinction between different participants.
• Thumbnail Generation: Images and videos are displayed with a thumbnail preview. Clickable links allow users to view full-size versions or play videos in a new tab.
• Dynamic HTML Title: The HTML title is set based on the name of the parent folder, providing context for each chat log.
• Attachment Handling: Supports common image formats (.jpg, .jpeg, .png, .gif) and video formats (.mp4, .mov, .webm).

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x

Usage

2. Run the Script: Execute the script using Python. It will automatically process all _chat.txt files in the subfolders and generate corresponding chat.html files.
