Chatty

This is a simple chat implemented with Server-Sent Events with Spring Boot

Overview

Messages are sent by the client over standard HTTP
Messages are received by the server over a SSE stream
There is a simple chat broker by chat room
The server sends periodically keep-alive messages to the client in order to keep or close the connection

How to run (for now)

Execute the spring boot app api on http://localhost:8080
cd into /frontend folder and run the Angular frontend with ng serve on http://localhost:4200/

Improvements

Obviously a decent docker-compose.yml
Chat room removal from broker if there's no connection after a while
