PART-A
Micro Project Proposal

 Title: Chat GUI using Python

 Aims/benefits of the micro-project:

Aim:- To develop a chat application with a graphical user interface (GUI) using Python,
enabling real-time communication between multiple clients.
Benefits:-.
 Provides hands-on experience in network programming and GUI design using Python.
 Helps students understand client-server communication and threading concepts.
 Encourages efficient message handling and user-friendly interface design.

 Description:
This project involves developing a chat application using Python's socket and threading
libraries for server-client communication and the Tkinter library for the GUI. The server
manages multiple clients, while the client-side interface allows users to send and receive
messages in real-time. The application supports personalized greetings and efficient
message broadcasting.

 Course Outcomes Addressed:

 Gain practical experience in developing network-based applications using Python.
 Understand the design and development of real-time communication systems.
 Enhance programming skills in socket programming and GUI development.

 Proposed methodology:
 Design and implement a server using the socket and threading libraries to handle
multiple clients.
 Develop a Tkinter-based GUI for the client-side application to send and receive
messages.
 Implement message broadcasting and personalized responses.
 Test the application for robustness in multi-client scenarios.

PART-B
Micro Project Proposal
 Introduction: This project explores the development of a Chat GUI using Python,
emphasizing real-time communication and user-friendly interface design. It demonstrates
the integration of socket programming and GUI development using Tkinter.
 Aims/benefits of the micro-project:
Aim:- To develop a real-time chat application with a GUI using Python's socket,
threading, and Tkinter libraries.

Benefits:-

 Provides real-world experience in building communication systems.

 Enhances problem-solving skills by handling multi-client scenarios and message
broadcasting.
 Strengthens understanding of Python programming concepts.

 Intended Course Outcomes:

 Develop Python-based network applications.
 Apply concepts of socket programming and threading.
 Create intuitive GUIs using Tkinter.

 Actual methodology followed:

 Group discussion on the project topic and objectives.
 Task distribution and role assignment among team members.
 Designing and planning the project structure.
 Collection and analysis of information on socket programming and Tkinter.
 Coding the server and client applications.
 Testing the application for multi-client communication.
 Preparing the project report and presentation.

 Literature Review:
Previous studies and projects have highlighted the importance of real-time communication
systems in various applications. Python's socket and Tkinter libraries have been widely used
for developing such systems due to their simplicity and efficiency. This project builds on
these concepts, incorporating multi-threading for handling concurrent clients and a user-
friendly GUI for an enhanced chat experience.
