Think of it as \"Postman for Socket.io\"\n\n## Why?\n\nI sent out a survey a bunch of people asking different questions about how they use Socket.io. The biggest question I asked, was:\n\n##### What do you currently do in order to test to make sure your Socket.io logic in your application is correct?\n\nAstoundingly, these were the results:\n\n![](http://i.imgur.com/wrg9y0r.png)\n\nDebugging Socket.io server logic is a mess. This is what Boltly (formally codenamed: \"Project Lightning\") hopes to fix. It will save time by allowing developers to test their logic with a click of a button.\n\n## MVP Features\n* Beautifully styled with Material Design guidelines\n* Multiple connections\n* Send events with complex bodies thanks to Ace Editor.\n* History of sent messages\n* Track any event\n* Watch messages come in in real time\n* Multi-platform support thanks to Electron\n\n### Dark theme\nOh yeah... There's also a slick dark theme.\n\n## Roadmap and progress\nThe progress of this project will be kept on Trello [here](https://trello.com/b/ixMGRAL1/project-lightning).\n\n## Prereq\nThis project has one prereq: Sass.\n\nTo install sass, go [here](http://sass-lang.com/install).\n\nFor more information on Sass, [see their homepage](http://sass-lang.com/).\n\n## Getting Started\n\n1. clone this repository or download the zip\n2. `cd project-lightning/`\n3. `npm install`\n4. `gulp`\n5. `npm start`\n\nYou should be good to go.
