Primary LanguageDart

Flutter WebSocket LAN Chat

💬 Chat on your Local Area Network with this Flutter application.

Structure

This repository contains 2 main projects:

  1. A NodeJS project that is located under the websocket folder.
  2. Flutter project that is in fact all these folders except for the websocket folder.

Getting Started

It is really easy to get started:

  1. Run the WebSocket -> Guide
  2. Build the flutter project -> flutter build apk --release and flutter install

Why

This project is mainly created to show of the power of a WebSocket. I also made a Flutter application to show some best practices, like using the provider, web_socket_channel and uuid packages.

And ofcourse LAN chatting is very useful if there is a Zombie 🧟. I've actually no idea why I've said that.
