Tech Stack

• Frontend: React + Vite
• Realtime: Socket.IO
• Backend: Node.js (Express) with in-memory per-room state
• Deploy: Single Node service that serves the built client and Socket.IO

---

Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18+ and npm

---

Scripts

• npm run dev — run server + client in development
• npm run build — build the client bundle
• npm start — start the Node server (serves built client if present)

Configuration

The server listens on PORT (default 3000). When serving the built client from the same origin, the Socket.IO client can connect with the default io() call and no manual URL.
