The main purpose of this project is to play with node.js and learn about it. Eventually, it may become usable, but for now is just a piece of software to me and others to play with.
I plan to implement:
- Rooms (done)
- Direct messages (done)
- Logging
- Registration
- Popup private windows
- Emoticons
- Blinking alerts in the title
To run the server execute
$ node server.js
And then you can point your browser to http://your_local_ip:1080
You can customise the port in the constants of server.js. TODO: accept a parameter with the port
