As I am interested in learning more about NodeJs and it capabilities in working as a tcp server I started working an a very small chatting-server and a terminal based client.
As a next step I am now trying to set up a P2P Chatting Network Client ( with one tracker on a server ).
You can fork both experiments – as I would call these – on github.
Chatserver
Chatclient
P2P Chatclient
P2P Chatclient tracker
The Peer2Peer stuff is not yet working as stable as it could be and I will continue to work on all of these things.
As a fellow student of mine noted these projects could be used to understand some slightly more complex mechanisms of Node.
So, it is more than a hello-world.js but still small and simple enough to get through in 10-15 minutes.
Have fun
