Single & Multi-Threaded Client-Server in Java

This repository contains implementations of single-threaded and multi-threaded client-server communication using Java Socket Programming.

📌 Overview

• Single-threaded Server → Can handle only one client at a time.
• Multi-threaded Server → Can handle multiple clients simultaneously using threads.

This project demonstrates the difference between synchronous and concurrent server architectures.

🛠 Tech Stack

• Java (JDK 8+)
• Socket Programming (TCP/IP)
• Threading & Concurrency

🚀 How to Run

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Tanukash12/Single-Multi-Threaded.git

2. Navigate to either the SingleThreaded or MultiThreaded folder.
3. Compile the code:

   javac Server.java Client.java

4. Run the server: java Server
5. Run one or more clients(MultiThreaded): java Client
