Notes

• This application it not completely secure, so it's not recommended to expose server port to Internet, use Local Network instead.
• It can be tested on a single machine, but that doesn't feel good. Use your friend's computer as second machine.
• Connect both the machines to same local network, can be your mobile hotspot (dw it won't consume your mobile data).
• To find IP Address of a machine, you can use ipconfig command on Windows and ifconfig on Linux Systems.

Instructions:
