this is a very basic chat app code using socket.io in nodejs to understand the working of web sockets
there is no rocket science to install and setup this app on your local machine, you just need to clone the repository and run the following command
- npm install
after completing the installation process run the app using following command
- npm start
- open the browser and type the url http://localhost:5000/?username=john
- paste the above mentioned URL in multiple tabs with the different value of username
I have plan to improve the app functionality and UI when I have time.
