This is an application for chatting inside a subnet. For example if three PCs are connected via Ethernet at home, they can talk to each other. I started this to practice network programming with Qt Framework and to be able to chat to my other machine at home. It implements a serverless (P2P) chat protocol called Train.

Features

  • Needs no server. Uses peer to peer approach.
  • You can see the list of connected people.
  • Uses Qt Framework and as a result is multi-platform.
  • Don't need internet connection to be able to chat with other peers in a LAN.
