Getting Started

Try out the chat example. Full code can be found here:

nim c -r --threads:on examples\chat.nim

This will output a peer ID such as QmbmHfVvouKammmQDJck4hz33WvVktNEe7pasxz2HgseRu which you can use in another instance to connect to it.

./example/chat
/connect QmbmHfVvouKammmQDJck4hz33WvVktNEe7pasxz2HgseRu

You can now chat between the instances!
