Review Summary
The implementation is missing two critical features that are explicitly required by the task: rename room and delete room functionality. The task description clearly states "create / rename / join / delete" rooms must be implemented, but only create and join are done. You need to add: 1) rename_room socket event handler in src/socket/socket.js to update room names and notify clients, 2) delete_room socket event handler to remove rooms from src/state/rooms.js and notify clients, 3) corresponding UI buttons in client/index.html and click handlers in client/main.js for both operations. These are not optional features—they are explicitly part of the requirements checklist.

The requirements specify 'create / rename / delete' rooms, but only create_room event is handled. Missing: rename_room and delete_room event handlers on the server.

Review Summary
There's a critical socket event name mismatch in client/main.js line 94 where socket.emit('join-room', newName) uses a hyphen, but the server socket handler listens for 'join_room' with an underscore. This breaks the room rename functionality—when a user renames a room, the client fails to properly join the renamed room, preventing message delivery and history loading for that room. The fix is straightforward: change 'join-room' to 'join_room' to match the server's event listener. This same issue appears in src/socket/socket.js where it's emitting the hyphenated version instead of the underscore version that the server expects. All other features are properly implemented, but this bug must be fixed before the rename room functionality can work correctly.

This socket event name uses a hyphen ('join-room') but the server listens for 'join_room' with an underscore. The client won't properly join the renamed room after renaming, breaking message delivery. Change 'join-room' to 'join_room' to match the server handler.

Event name mismatch: server listens for join_room (underscore) but this emits join-room (hyphen). After a room rename, the client won't properly load the room history. Change join-room to join_room.

Review Summary
Your chat application is working correctly and meets all requirements. The critical socket event naming issue has been resolved - all files now consistently use join_room with an underscore. You've successfully implemented username handling with localStorage persistence, message display with author/time/text formatting, and complete room management (create/rename/join/delete). The room history feature for new users is also working properly. Great job on ensuring consistency between client and server socket event handlers!
