Chat

(still in development stages)
A public web application to chat and send multimedia files.

Init

First clone the repository and install all the dependencies it needs with npm install

To start the server in production mode, use:

npm start

If you want to enable the test mode, use:

npm test

Test mode includes the use of nodemon to detect changes in the client/src/ directory and preprocess them in real time.
