Oppiskele Simple Chat Program | Building Network Applications

To build a simple chat program in C using sockets, you need two main components: a server that listens for incoming connections and a client that connects to the server. Both sides use TCP sockets to reliably send and receive messages. The server waits for a connection from a client, then both sides take turns sending and receiving text messages in a loop. Each message is transmitted as a sequence of bytes over the network, and the TCP protocol ensures that messages are delivered in the correct order without loss or duplication. You can structure your chat program so that after the connection is established, the server and client alternate: one side reads user input from the terminal and sends it, while the other receives and displays the message. This basic setup forms the foundation for more advanced chat applications.
