This is an example of chat server program inspired by the smallchat project by antirez. For learning and practice, I wrote a version in Go language.
This project serves as a learning tool designed to understand the basics of TCP server programming and how a simple chat server can be constructed and operated.
Like smallchat, you can connect to the chat server using telnet or netcat on the default port 8080:
$ telnet localhost 8080
or
$ nc localhost 8080
/nick <name>- Set your nickname in the chat./quit- Disconnect from the chat server.
This project is for educational purposes only. It is not intended for production use as it lacks comprehensive error handling and security features.
