Simple TCP Server

This is a basic Python TCP server that accepts incoming connections and handles each client in a separate thread. It prints messages received from clients and allows the server operator to send messages back to all connected clients.

Features

• Handles multiple clients using threading
• Prints received messages from clients
• Lets the server send messages to all connected clients (note: you’ll need to add the list of clients yourself)

How to Run

1. Clone or download the repo.
2. Run the server script:

python server.py

3. Connect with a client like nc (netcat):

nc localhost 10000

4. Type messages in the client to send to the server.
5. Type messages in the server console to send to all clients (requires managing connected clients list).

Notes

• The code currently receives only one message per client connection.
• The connected_clients list is referenced but not implemented; you’ll need to add it to keep track of clients to broadcast messages properly.
• You can improve the server by looping in handle_client to receive multiple messages and properly managing client connections.
