# Full socket.io client and server example

To see a full explanation, read my answer on SO here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/24232050/778272.

## How to use

Create a folder, run `npm init -f` on it and paste both `server.js` and `client.js` there (see files below). Needless to say, you must have Node.js installed on your system.

Install the required libraries:

    npm install socket.io
    npm install socket.io-client

Run the server:

    node server

Open other terminal windows and spawn as many clients as you want by running:

    node client
