Project structure

As you are probably here for reconnaissance reasons for your own project here's a quick overview of the structure:

• pages -> html pages
• scripts -> js files where chat.js is the "heavy-lifter" which actually implements the websocket chat logic
• static -> icon, stylesheet for pages
• src/api -> the fundament of backend logic, authorization, database and websocket handling,all necessary structs, constants
• src/log -> a custom logger
• src/page -> a shorcut function for handling html templates
• src/server -> the main server struct that glues everything together. For a high-level inspection - refer there
• src/main.go -> parse command line flags, set up logging and leave the rest for the server
