# Chat-Box Application
Secure Chat Box Application demonstrates the use of socket programming and RSA encryption in Python. It is designed to provide a basic example of secure communication between multiple clients and a server.
## Features
- **Secure Communication**: Messages are encrypted using RSA encryption, ensuring secure communication between clients.
- **Multi-client Support**: The server can handle multiple clients simultaneously.
- **GUI Client**: The client application includes a graphical user interface (GUI) built with Tkinter.
- **Real-time Messaging**: Clients can send and receive messages in real-time.
## Installation
1. **Clone the repository**:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/anishvedant/Chat-box-application.git
cd Chat-box-application
```
2. **Install dependencies**:
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
3. **Run the server**:
```bash
python3 server.py
```
4. **Run the client**:
```bash
python3 client.py
```
## Usage
### Server
1. Start the server by running `server.py`.
2. The server will listen for incoming client connections on the specified host and port.
### Client
1. Start multiple clients on different terminals by running `client.py`.
2. Enter a username and connect to the server.
3. Send and receive messages securely.
## Customization
- **Host and Port**: You can change the `HOST` and `PORT` variables in `server.py` and `client.py` to run the server and client on different addresses and ports.
- **Encryption**: The RSA encryption keys can be customized in the `decrypto.py` module.
