Join us for “Creating a TUI Chat App using Websockets”, presented by Michael Duren, Software Engineer at Maximus. Michael will be presenting in-person.

Golang methodology is notorious for simplicity and building your own tools. In this meetup, we will dive into how websockets actually work by briefly reviewing the RFC6455 standard, implementing a simple websocket with go’s net/http package and then building a TUI chat app with charmbracelet/bubbletea. After this meetup, you will have a better understanding of how websockets work, how to implement them in Go, and create simple applications all without touching a front-end framework or the web browser.
