this is the code for server

package ds;
 
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.border.TitledBorder;
 
public class Server extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
  // Text area for displaying contents
  private JTextField toclient = new JTextField();
  private JTextArea display = new JTextArea();
  private JButton send = new JButton("Send/Start Server");
  public DatagramSocket aSocket;
  public DatagramPacket request;
  public DatagramPacket reply;
 
  public static void main(String[] args) {
 
    new Server();
  }
 
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
       if (e.getSource() == send){
           try {
 
           String msg = toclient.getText();
           byte [] xy = msg.getBytes();
           reply = new DatagramPacket(xy,xy.length,
           request.getAddress(), request.getPort());
 
           //sending a reply message to client
                aSocket.send(reply);
            } catch (IOException ex) {
                ex.printStackTrace();
            }
       }
    }
 
  public Server() {
 
    JPanel input = new JPanel();
    input.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
    input.setBorder(new TitledBorder("Enter Message"));
    input.add(toclient, BorderLayout.CENTER);
    input.add(send, BorderLayout.EAST);
 
    JPanel output = new JPanel();
    output.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
    output.setBorder(new TitledBorder("Conversation"));
    output.add(display, BorderLayout.CENTER);
 
    JPanel gabung = new JPanel();
    gabung.setLayout(new GridLayout(2, 1));
    gabung.add(input);
    gabung.add(output);
 
    this.getContentPane().add(gabung, BorderLayout.NORTH);
    send.addActionListener(this);
 
    setTitle("Chat Server");
    setSize(500, 300);
    setVisible(true);
 
 
 
     }
 
 
}

this is client

package ds;
 
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.border.TitledBorder;
 
public class Client extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
  // Text area for displaying contents
  private JTextField toclient = new JTextField();
  private JTextArea display = new JTextArea();
  private JButton send = new JButton("Send");
 
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    new Client();
  }
 
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
    }
 
  public Client() {
 
    JPanel input = new JPanel();
    input.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
    input.setBorder(new TitledBorder("Enter Message"));
    input.add(toclient, BorderLayout.CENTER);
    input.add(send, BorderLayout.EAST);
 
    JPanel output = new JPanel();
    output.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
    output.setBorder(new TitledBorder("Conversation"));
    output.add(display, BorderLayout.CENTER);
 
    JPanel gabung = new JPanel();
    gabung.setLayout(new GridLayout(2, 1));
    gabung.add(input);
    gabung.add(output);
 
    this.getContentPane().add(gabung, BorderLayout.NORTH);
 
    setTitle("Chat Client");
    setSize(500, 300);
    setVisible(true);
 
 
 
}
 
 
 
}

where do i need to implement the udp or tcp?

You can do it simply using tcp. Use "ServerSocket" on server side to accept the connection from client. Using "Socket" class on client side connect to the server. Then u can communicate by creating the input and output streams for the socket.
