Websocket Chat

Websocket chat is an anonymous chat service written in Javascript with sockets which serves a web frontend.

Technologies used

  • The chat service is written in javascript using the socket io library. It serves a frontend and a socket JS library using an expressjs server.
  • The client is written in HTML/CSS/JS and can dynamically switch between different styles. Styles are written in css and javascript and by default there is an IRC and Imessage style.

How it works

Websocket chat is a very simple service, it does not encrypt, modify, or store any communications. Everything that is recieved from the clients are immediately broadcasted to any connected client.

Roadmap (Ideas)

  • Singing and encryption of messages using asymetric keys
  • Private messages with stored history
  • Pseudonyms
