Asynchronous Chat Application Written in Rust

This repository was a learning project as well as a project for my networking class

This program uses Async-std for asynchronous programming and Druid for the UI

Usage

Server

• Start the server application
  • That's it.

Client

• Start the client application
• Enter a username/alias
• To message another connected client the format is 'recipient: message'
  • For more than one recipient the format is 'recipient1, recipient2, recipient3: message'
• To get a list of connected clients click the "List Clients" button
• The "New Recipient" button is not properly implemented.
  • It will take you to a new window that you cannot return from. Restart the application.
