Redis Clone in C

This project is inspired by the book Build Your Own Redis with C/C++. I'm reading the book, understanding its concepts, and using this knowledge to improve the code as I work on building a basic Redis-like server from the ground up.

Makefile

• src/client: This directory contains the code and resources for the client-side of our Redis clone. The client is responsible for interacting with the server, sending commands, and receiving responses.

• src/server: The server-side of our Redis clone resides here. This is where we implement the core functionality of the Redis-like database, handling data storage and retrieval, and managing client connections.

• src/shared: Common code and resources shared between the client and server are stored in this directory. It includes code that both components depend on, ensuring consistency and efficiency in the project.
