Chat App

Chat with real-time menssages

Made with React, Redux and Redux-Sagas in the frontend. In the backend I used WebSockets(WS NodeJS).

I also used chance, a library used to generate random things, in this case, names.

Installing / Getting started

First, we clone and install the dependencies. Then we initiate the server.

git clone https://github.com/ArmandoGraterol/chat
cd chat
npm install
cd server
node index

Lastly, we open a new cmd and navigate back to chat to initialize the client.

cd chat
npm start

The Websocket server starts on port 8080. You can change it on server/index.js.

Features

• Instant messages between users connected.
• List displaying all the users currently online.
• Messages are not saved once the user disconnect nor they can see messages sent while they were offline.
