Here is technology stack:

- Socket.io for socketing

- Golang for backend server

- Raspbian Jessie Lite 4.1

- Ngrok for tunnel (if you see a delay for while it's due to ngrok)

Still working on improving ngrok latency and making SD card image to post here.

A new chat server that isn't vulnerable to XSS; the internet is learning.

Edit - Who killed it?

+1 for user names, maybe an opt-in notification system for incoming messages

mostly a userlist and usernames makes it a little better to see who is on
