# Tokio Chat Server Example
This is a more involved example of using tokio to write a concurrent
application. This chat server demonstrates
* how to handling states in streams and futures
* how to use data structures that need to be shared between threads (e.g. to
keep track of sessions)
* how to "broadcast" to streams
* how to shutdown a stream early
the server itself features
* private messages
* "commands"
## How to try it
First, open a terminal and compile with `cargo compile`. Then run `cargo run`.
Open two more terminals, and in each one, run `netcat localhost 8080`.
You can "log in" by typing a name and pressing ENTER. Then you can
send messages by entering some string and then hitting ENTER.
It's also possible to send a "private message" to user `` by typing in
`/msg `.
