Simple Chat Example

Built with the Phoenix Framework

To start your new Phoenix application you have to:

  1. Clone this repo, then cd to the new directory
  2. Install dependencies with mix deps.get
  3. (optional) Install npm dependencies to customize the ES6 js/Sass npm install
  4. Start Phoenix router with mix phx.server

Now you can visit localhost:4000 from your browser.
