📖 Overview

• Social apps are popular all over the world such as Facebook, Line, Whatsapp. If you are eager to create a unique social platform, the Chat-Craft project will be an indispensable ideal choice for you. Chat-Craft is a cross-platform mobile application that uses Golang as the back-end server technology and Flutter as the front-end client technology. The application is designed to provide an efficient, stable and cross-platform user experience, combining modern mobile application development technology with high-performance back-end server technology.
• In the Chat-Craft project, the author carefully crafted the client UI, drawing inspiration from major instant messaging applications and the latest application design specifications. This unique design cleverly combines the advantages of all aspects to present a pleasing visual experience. Such a UI not only gives the project a unique aesthetic, but also creates a more interesting learning environment for learners.

3. Load project dependencies: Load the dependencies of the flutter client and the dependencies of the golang server respectively.

//Loading the Flutter project dependencies
flutter pub get
//View the dependencies of the flutter project
flutter pub deps

//Load golang project dependencies
go mod download
//View all dependencies of golang's current project
go list -m all

4. Configure the project: Configure database, middleware, IP, and running port.

//First configure config-debug.yaml in the golang project
//Configure the project running port, database and middleware corresponding IP, port and account password
port: '8889'
host: '127.0.0.1'
mysql:
  host: '127.0.0.1'
  port: '3306'
  name: 'chatcraft'
  user: 'root'
  password: 'root@123321'

  port: '6379'
rabbitmq:
  host: "127.0.0.1"
  port: "5672"
  user: "guest"

//Then configure ip_config.dart under the flutter project flutter_chat_craft\lib\common
class IpConfig {
  //Replace with server address
  static const ip = "127.0.0.1:8889";
}

5. Execute SQL on the local database: Execute chatcraft.sql under Go-Chat-Craft for mysql. 6. Run client and server projects

🎉Future

A good open source project must be iterated over a long period of time. As a "baby", Chat Craft still has a long way to grow. However, it is this challenge that gives it a chance to become an excellent open source project. In the next journey, Chat Craft will continue to iterate and improve, let us witness its growth together! Everyone is very welcome to participate in this open source project. If you have any ideas for improving the project, please let me know through the issue on github~
