How do I make a IRC server?

Hello people, I can’t make a IRC server in any way. I’ve
been trying to use different node modules but none of them work due to the port limitation and this aws load limiter error:

IRC server on glitch. It wouldn’t stay online forever. This is a type of project you should try to self host.

It would. What would be stopping it?

Also, I’ve tried doing this on Python, but the same issue with Awselb keeps occuring.

An IRC server on glitch won’t and can’t stay online forever, it would cause problems on other projects. But it would make a Proof Of Concept!

Doesn’t need to, it’ll work perfectly.

You can only create a WebIRC but not a regular IRC server as Glitch only forward HTTP request, not a regular TCP.

Well, websocat lets you send TCP traffic using WebSockets, so it’s definitely possible. It just won’t work very well because of Glitch stopping things after 5 minutes.
