Remember LAN parties or when you used to play with your friends locally on the same wifi? Well, this is the same thing but a messaging platform.

Technologies Used

Python (sockets, threading)

---

Things to note:

• so i used the socket and threading libary to respectively transfer the message data and run multiple processes simultaneously
• since its a simple project, i dont really need to use an IPv6 address. I understand IPv6 is the future and stuff, so I will play around with it in the future. But for now, we use IPv4

Admin Rules:

• username is "admin" and password is "masteroogway12"
• /kick kicks users
• /ban bans users

Configuration:

1. Open two terminals (1 server, 1 client)
2. Be in the file directory in both terminals
3. run "python3 server.py" on the server terminal and "python3 client.py" on the client terminal
