Python-Socket-Messenger

A real-time terminal chat app built with pure Python sockets. It lets many clients connect to one server and talk in real time.

🚀 How it works

• You start the server on one computer.
• Other computers run the client and connect to it.
• Everyone can send and receive messages instantly.

⚙️ How to run

🖥️ 1. Start the server

python server.py

Keep this running — it waits for clients to join.

💻 2. Start the client

On another machine (or same computer), run:

python client.py

If the server is on another PC, edit this line in client.py:

SERVER_HOST = "192.168.x.x"   # replace with server's IPv4 address

✍️ 3. Chat!

Type messages and press Enter to send them.
