GUI-Based Client-Server Application with RPC

Overview

This project is a graphical user interface (GUI) based Client-Server Application built to facilitate message broadcasting over a Local Area Network (LAN). The application utilizes Remote Procedure Call (RPC) protocol to manage communication between the client and server components.

Features

• Client Interface:

  • User-friendly graphical interface for easy interaction.
  • Connect to the server on the LAN.
  • Recieve the broadcast messages from the server.

• Server Functionality:

  • Listens for incoming client connections.
  • Broadcasts messages to all connected clients.

• RPC Protocol:

  • Implements Remote Procedure Call for efficient communication.
  • Ensures secure and reliable message transmission.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x installed on both client and server machines.
• Tkinter library for GUI components (typically included in Python standard library).
• Additional libraries for RPC, if not included by default.

Usage

1. Clone the repository to your local machine:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/your-repository.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd your-repository

3. Run the server script on the server machine:

   python server.py

4. Run the client script on each client machine:

   python client.py

5. Use the GUI to connect to the server and start broadcasting messages.
