Python Socket Programming

This repository contains two key projects demonstrating the power of socket programming in Python. It showcases a network bandwidth monitor and a basic client-server application using threading for concurrent connections.

Projects

Bandwidth Monitor

The bandwidth-monitor directory houses a Python script (bandwidth.py) that provides real-time network bandwidth monitoring.

Setup:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Features:

• Real-time upload and download speeds
• Graphical representation of network usage (Screenshots in the ss folder)

How to Run:

Ensure you have Python installed on your system. Then run the following command in your terminal:

python bandwidth-monitor/bandwidth.py

Output:

2. Client-Server Connection

The client-server directory features a simple implementation of socket-based client and server programs, demonstrating basic network communication.

Features:

• Establish a socket connection between a server and multiple clients.
• Utilize threading to manage multiple client connections simultaneously.

How to Run:

Launch the server by executing:

python server.py

Open another terminal window and start the client by running:

python client.py

Future Developments

A Command Line Interface (CLI) chat application built upon the client-server architecture for real-time communication.
