I developed a real-time chat application using React and Golang. The app leverages WebSocket for seamless communication and includes a user-friendly interface. I focused on performance optimisation and creating a scalable architecture to handle concurrent users, ensuring a smooth and reliable experience for all users. This project demonstrates my ability to build full-stack applications with secure authentication and real-time features.

Features include:

Secure user authentication with JWT

Real time message updates for private and group chats using WebSocket

PostgreSQL database integration for managing users, conversations and messages

Sidebar with user search functionality and hydration of recent conversations, including an unread messages counter
