🚀 This Application is Deployed in Vercel.

  • The vercel.json has the vercel deploy config.

Important

Currently the deployed app is not fully functional, there is a major issue in deployment in the server side, will be solved ASAP. But Local dev will be working fine without any issues.

The Issue:

  • In Client side, in chat.jsx there is a function to connect WebSocket through ws://localhost:4000, in local dev we can connect and works well but in vercel deployment, i am figuring out a way to use the WS link from env variable. Thats the only issue in deployment, if you have any idea to solve, let me know...
