# Node.js Chat

A starter chat app using Node.js and WebSockets.



## Install Node.js

1. [Node.js](http://nodejs.org)

## Run Locally

Install all dependencies:

```shell

npm install

```

Run the app:

```shell

node start.js

```

**Note:** You may want to consider using [`nodemon`](http://nodemon.io/) which will auto-start your server every time you save.

```shell

npm install nodemon -g

nodemon start.js

```

Navigate to `http://localhost:3000`. Open two browsers and start chatting.
