This repository hosts a simple Kotlin Ktor websockets chat server, based off the this ktor guide on the official ktor site. Under resources/client, you will also find a simple chat web client created with React and Material UI.
To work with this app, simply pull this project into Intellij or Eclipse, and build with gradle. You should be able to run the main method of the Application.kt file under src, and that will start up a Netty server. Hit http://localhost:8080/, and the React app should get served up to you!
If you want to run the web application independently, you can do so by installing the dependencies with yarn or npm under the resources/client folder, then running yarn start.
