You can start it clicking F5 in Visual Studio , the server will be listening for incoming requests
On port 7681.
Few Notes About the Client Server Architecture i use it this tutorial .
As mentioned in PART 1 of this tutorial , the example here going to implement the Authoritative server ,
In short what it means is the server will not send on each client game loop verification instead of it will send to the client the game status as played in the server , and the client will current the moves according to the server status or just keep with the game flow if its vaild . the client will use something called : client prediction , what this means in short is that the client will send to the server the game info that happens , but it will not wait for the verification for each step , it will just verify that the steps before the current step are done right . ( meter of milliseconds ) .
The source code :
ws_cococs_server_main.c
This file will initialize the libuv framework and the libwebsockets
The libwebsockets will use the libuv event loop and other services and will take command on the entire server .

Lines 14 - 23: libwebsockets part of it configuration we can define several protocols
Line 16: this is the uri which the client will call the web sockets request.
Line 17:callback_wsapi is the name of the main function which receive the client request.
Line 18:the size of the data structure which will hold the session data
which means that each protocol can capture our request and process it
we are going to use only 1 protocol which process our web sockets requests
the HTTP hand shack authentication will be handled automatically by libwebsockets .
Lines 24 -35: callback which be called in case of context initialization failure . (line 68)
Lines 39 -84: configuration of libwebsockets
Line 50: server port
Line 60: configure libwebsockets to use libuv as its networking layer .
