The client
The graphical user interface of the client (TcpClient) is pretty simple. It has three input fields to define the server's address (ui->address), the server's port (ui->port), and a username (ui->user). Of course, there is also a button to connect to (ui->connect) and disconnect from (ui->disconnect) the server. Finally, the GUI has a text edit that holds the received messages (ui->chat) and a line edit (ui->text) to send messages.
