Functional Discord Clone using React, Socket IO, NodeJS, Express and MySQL
Currently learning WebRTC to implement voice!
Originally started off on a test project for learning Functional Components, Hooks, Socket IO and TypeScript ended up being a Discord Clone.
Live Version # http://discordarpt.github.io
If you need to use my backend api change the env variable REACT_APP_API_URL in .env to https://simple-chat-apix.herokuapp.com, otherwise host the API yourself and set this environment variable appropriately.
