A very simple chat app build with Socket.IO on an express server.

#socket.io #express

Designed to look like Slack.

This project was developed because I love the idea of "real time" user experience. I built this so I could start playing around with WebSockets, with the intent to learn more about the functionality and implement socket.io in future IoT projects.

Open two separate tabs of this app and chat with a friend!

This app will use WebSockets real time data flow to keep connections open between multiple browsers or tabs. See messages sent in real time and see when someone else's typing a message.

It's still a bit buggy, but overall it was a fun weekend project.
