Chat Application

This is a simple chat application that allows multiple clients to connect to a server and chat with each other. It uses sockets and threading technology to allow clients to interact with each other

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x
• tkinter (if you want the GUI version)

Installing

• Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/<Gojimandev/>/python-socket-chat.git

Running the server

To run the server, navigate to the root of the project in the command prompt and run the following command:

python server.py

Running the client

To run the client, navigate to the root of the project in the command prompt and run the following command:

• Once a username is entered and set, the user can start sending messages to the server, which will then be broadcasted to all connected clients.
• User can also receive messages from other clients.
