Global chat available to everyone. Chat with anyone on Earth and exchange messages using Terminal/CMD now!

• Global Connectivity – Connect and chat with anyone on Earth directly through your terminal
• Asynchronous CLI – Built with prompt_toolkit, meaning incoming messages won't interrupt what you are currently typing
• Anti-Spam Protection – Built-in message cooldowns to keep the chat clean and readable
• Robust Moderation – Complete server-side control with built-in commands to ban users by IP, kick, or view the online list
• Chat History – New users automatically receive the last 10 messages upon joining so they never lose context

• windows or linux
• internet or wifi

1. Download client.exe from Releases tab
2. Open and type username

GG now you can write with someone!!!

• python (I use version 3.13)
• docker compose (if you want to follow this guide)

1. In the terminal, go to the directory where you want to copy the repository and run this command:

   git clone https://github.com/wuffgame/Global-Chat
   
   

2. Next, go to the folder global-chat with the Dockerfile and run this command for the server:

   docker compose up --build -d
   
   

3. Ready, enjoy using it!!!

Enter docker container using docker attach global-chat (do not use ctrl+c, use ctrl + p ctrl + q)

GG your server is ready!!

• python (I use version 3.13)
• prompt_toolkit

1. Go to global-chat/client.py, in line 10: client.connect(("127.0.0.1", 12345)) change ip and port to the same as the server
2. In cmd in the same folder install pyinstaller using pip install pyinstaller
3. Then type pyinstaller --onefile client.py and your client.exe will be in folder /dist

GG You have your private global chat!!!

Run these command directly in the server console to moderate the chat:

• kick me> - Kick a user from the chat
• ban me> - Ban user's IP
• unban ip> - Unban an IP
• ban-list - Show all banned IPs
• list - See who is online
• say ge> - Send an official system announcement
• help - See all server commands

AI is used as a learning tool to help understand certain parts of code, but I still write the main code myself.

Thanks Hack Club for give me motivation to end this project!!!

MacOs install guide will come someday when I get access to one.
