React gRPC Chat Application

This is an example of a chat application using gRPC, React, Envoy and Redis. Right now this only supports one chat room and implementing direct chat messages is easy but requires some extra work that I am not willing to do right now. If you want to contribute I do not mind!

There is a youtube video series where I go over making this application if intertested here
