This is an application to retrieve Stock Quotes in real time.
The application was compiled with JDK 1.8. In order to run the jar, simply download the zip file and run the command below, and you are good to go - just make sure you have Java running on your system. The application runs on port 8091 but of course you can change the port in the application.properties file in the config folder.
java -jar stockquotes.jar
On your browser, go to http://localhost:8091 to access the page
The application was built with the concept of Schedulers and Websockets. When a user adds a stock to watch, a request to is made to YahooFinance API to get the quotes for the stocks added and then goes ahead to push them to a topic. this automatically gets reflected on the frontend because of the use of websockets and some other dependencies.
