Chatroom service i am trying to build using Tornado and Bootstrap. A good portion of the code is from jPablo128's helpful tutorial on http://www.jpablo128.com/multi-room-websockets-server-with-tornado-i-basic-chat-server/

I will extend his idea by adding the following features:

• Message persistence

  • I am using a simple db with one table that stores all sent messages.
  • Retrieval can be through room name + time
  • I can't think of a simpler way to get this done.

• Attractive UI (done)

  • Homepage (done)
  • Existing chatroom page (done)
  • Chat page (done)

• no spaces allowed in room and usernames. (done)

• Show available chatrooms(done)
