Show HN: Rust chat client (with GUI) and server on Mac and FreeBSD using WebSockets

I'm learning Rust and put this together from sample code over a few days. Rust is incredibly fun (I normally work with Go and Swift). My goal is to see if I can put the client on a development board running xBSD and use a touchscreen for input. Client https://github.com/zkirill/thor Server https://github.com/zkirill/odin You need Rust 1.7.0 and Cargo 0.9.0 to compile. The package for FreeBSD doesn't currently go that high so you need to use a port (instructions at https://gist.github.com/zkirill/4fb42b4ba4b7cc58c4f0) Packages of interest: * IO (epoll, kqueue) used by the server to handle many WebSocket connections on the same thread. See bottom of the MIO README for performance comparisons to other implementations: https://github.com/carllerche/mio * WebSocket server dependent MIO: https://github.com/housleyjk/ws-rs * WebSocket client: ht
