microservice-chat-app VS PHP AMQP

I installed rabbitmq succesfully and went through the tutorials without trouble: http://www.rabbitmq.com/getstarted.html

Microservices have nothing to do with Nest vs Express or anything like that. It's really just about breaking your code into smaller services and then using a mechanism to communicate between them. Hell, you can even have one service using Nest and the other Express if your communication mechanism is HTTP. A more robust system typically uses something like RabbitMQ, which allows for different types of messaging patterns and asynchronous messaging.

One day I was trying to learn the deep concepts of RabbitMQ, its use cases and why it's different from other message brokers. I've started by reading the cool documentation and then I was eager to try it out in a demo application.

Having said that, RabbitMQ has wonderful tutorials, and a lot of effort has gone into making it accessible for newcomers. Here you go: https://www.rabbitmq.com/getstarted.html

I'm not going to explain every argument of the called methods. If you want to better understand each of them, take the RabbitMQ tutorial. It's pretty simple and will give you all the information you need!

If you are not familiar with RabbitMQ or the streadway/amqp driver, you can try it out using the official tutorials. Just replace any "github.com/streadway/amqp" import statements with "github.com/peake100/rogerRabbit-go/pkg/amqp". If you find a tutorial this does not work for, please open a PR!
