Mern chat
ABOUT
This full-stack chat application is designed to provide real-time, secure communication in a modern web environment. Users can register, log in, and instantly connect through one-on-one conversations powered by Socket.IO. A streamlined interface built with React, TailwindCSS and DaisyUI ensures a smooth, responsive user experience across devices.
The app integrates persistent storage with MongoDB to save user accounts and chat history, while Node.js and Express handle backend logic and RESTful endpoints. Modular architecture and reusable components keep the project maintainable, while Vite accelerates frontend development. Together, these technologies create a fast, reliable, and scalable messaging platform.

Description
The frontend was developed in React with a component-driven architecture, styled using TailwindCSS and DaisyUI to ensure responsiveness and consistency. Vite was used for a rapid development environment, providing hot-module reloading and optimized builds. The UI emphasizes usability, scalability, and clean design, with DaisyUI components improving development speed and theme consistency.
On the backend, Node.js and Express manage routing and API endpoints, while Socket.IO enables seamless, bidirectional real-time messaging between clients. MongoDB stores user data and chat records, ensuring persistence and reliability. Authentication was implemented with JWT-based sessions for secure user access. A hybrid architecture of REST APIs provides flexibility, while environment-based configurations streamline deployment.
