## Introduction
The **Multithreaded Web Server** is a simple yet powerful TCP server written in Java, designed to handle multiple client connections simultaneously. It utilizes multithreading to ensure that each client is served in its own thread, providing a responsive and efficient user experience.
## Features
- Handles multiple clients using a thread pool.
- Each client receives a personalized greeting message.
- Graceful server shutdown to finish current connections.
- Configurable thread pool size for optimal performance.
## Technologies Used
- Java SE
- Socket Programming
- Multithreading
- ExecutorService
## Getting Started
### Prerequisites
- Java Development Kit (JDK) 8 or higher
- An IDE or text editor (e.g., IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, Visual Studio Code)
### Installation
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/multithreaded-webserver.git
cd multithreaded-webserver
2. Compile the server and client:
```bash
javac Server.java Client.java
### Running the Server
To start the server, navigate to the directory containing the compiled Server.class and run: ***java Server***
The server will start listening on port 8010. You can adjust the port in the Server class if needed.
### Running the Client
To connect to the server, navigate to the directory containing the compiled Client.class and run: ***java Client***
You can modify the number of clients in the Client class to test the server's handling of multiple connections.
### Code Structure
multithreaded-webserver/
└──> Server.java # Contains the server implementation
└──> Client.java # Contains the client implementation
### Usage
Start the server before running the client.
Each client will connect to the server and receive a greeting message.
Monitor the server console for connection logs.
