Shielded Help Demo
Anonymous Chat Server
This repo demonstrates the use of the connections API to create an anonymous chat server, where users can receive support anonymously
Setup & Execution
To start the server, download or compile the appropriate binary for your system, set up a config file and run the following command:
./chat.binary -c path/to/config.yaml
This will start the chat server & output a contact file containing the server's identity to the configured path.
Compilation Steps:
go mod vendor -v
go mod tidy
