Chump - Simple chat client for Champ

Chump Code Challenge

This is a barebones application whose structure is similar to the applications we use at Stukent. It is a React.js application with all the bells and whistles.

Getting Started:

1. Star this repository
2. Install the latest version of node.js
3. Fork this repository so you can make edits
4. git clone on your forked copy
5. cd chump on your local machine
6. npm i to install node modules.
7. npm start to start the development server
8. Go to localhost:3031 in your browser and register.
9. Start hacking.

Instructions:

Take this template and make it look and feel like a real application. It has the potential to be a nice chat application like Slack, HipChat, or Rocket Chat. It just needs a little love.

I have built this template as a starting point for this challenge to find another JavaScript developer. We are are hoping for someone who can flat-out code and learn quickly.

The tools used in this application are the current industry standard, and likely years ahead of what you're used to. Do not panic. Ask questions. Search the internet. Work the problem.

Here are a couple links that may help:

• New JavaScript Features
• React.js by Facebook
• Redux (Functional State Management)
