This is the Real-time Chat project I made myself.

In this project, I managed to successfully implement:

• Use HTML and CSS to implement a basic chat page.
• Implement the input field, send button, and message container with JS and add more CSS styles.
• Implement the group chat using WebSocket with STOMP protocol.
• Implement a simple login. Extend the message structure and show the sender with the date.
• Add a new section that shows a list of online users.
• Allow users to switch between public and private chats.
• Implement sending and receiving private messages.
• Add counters near usernames in the user list that shows the number of unread messages, and move usernames of chatters to the top of the user list.
