Prompt Chat is a secure chat application based on a client-server architecture, utilizing AES encryption for secure communication. This project has been tested on Kali Linux but has not been tested on Microsoft Windows.

• Installation
• Usage
• Generating AES Key
• Running the Server
• Running the Client

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/priyanxshu999/Prompt_chat.git
   cd Prompt_chat

2. Install dependencies:

   chmod +x install.sh implibs.sh ipaddr.sh
   ./install.sh
   ./implibs.sh

3. Find the IP address of your machine:

   ./ipaddr.sh

   Or use the command:

   ip a

Generate an AES key for secure communication. Ensure to generate a new key and paste it into both chat_server.py and chat_client.py scripts.

1. Run the server script:

   python chat_server.py

2. Enter the following details:

   • IP address of your machine
   • Port number (i.e, 8080)
   • Your name

1. Open a new terminal and run the client script:

   python chat_client.py

2. Enter the following details:

   • IP address entered by the server
   • Port number entered by the server (i.e, 8080)
   • Your name

Once these steps are completed, the connection will be established and you can start chatting securely.

• The shell scripts (install.sh, implibs.sh, ipaddr.sh) are created to install all necessary libraries and to find the IP address of your machine.
• Ensure to provide executable permissions to the shell scripts using:

  chmod +x <Filename>

• Always generate a new AES key for each session to enhance security. Do not use the existing keys provided in the scripts.

That's it! Enjoy secure chatting with Prompt Chat.
