Live Chat(Mustafa/Mehmet/Salih)

User Story

As a user I want to chat other developers instantly. So, I can ask technical issues directly, and solve my problems not spending time trying to find solutions with only gooogling.I want to see which users are online. There will be a general room for all registered users so anyone can join this room. Later, it will be great idea to add private rooms to this feature.

Plan for technical implementation

Backend

• Install socket.io library as a real time application engine.
• Add new route for chat feature.
• Make socket.io server and initialise it with express.
• Make socket connection and broadcast.
• For user list; add, remove and get online users.

Frontend

• Install socket.io-client library as a real time application engine.
• Create chat component.
• Add link to Navbar component.
• Render a Chat App as a private route on /chats
• Create chat action creators and add into type file.
• Create chat reducers and add a root reducer file.
