How to send data through wifi in android programmatically?

This example demonstrate about send data through wifi in android programmatically
Need Server and Client Project
Step 1 − Create a new project in Android Studio, go to File ⇒ New Project and fill all required details to create a new project.
Step 2 − Add the following code to res/layout/activity_main.xml.
<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android = "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   xmlns:tools = "http://schemas.android.com/tools"
   android:layout_width = "match_parent"
   android:layout_height = "match_parent"
   android:layout_margin = "16dp"
   tools:context = ".MainActivity">
   <TextView
      android:id = "@+id/tvIP"
      android:layout_width = "wrap_content"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
      android:textAppearance = "@style/Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Medium" />
   <TextView
      android:id = "@+id/tvPort"
      android:layout_width = "wrap_content"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
      android:layout_below = "@+id/tvIP"
      android:textAppearance = "@style/Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Medium" />
   <TextView
      android:id = "@+id/tvConnectionStatus"
      android:layout_width = "match_parent"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
      android:layout_below = "@+id/tvPort"
      android:textAppearance = "@style/Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Medium" />
   <TextView
      android:id = "@+id/tvMessages"
      android:layout_width = "match_parent"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
      android:layout_above = "@+id/etMessage"
      android:layout_below = "@+id/tvConnectionStatus"
      android:inputType = "textMultiLine"
      android:textAppearance = "@style/Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Medium" />
   <EditText
      android:id = "@+id/etMessage"
      android:layout_width = "match_parent"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
      android:layout_above = "@+id/btnSend"
      android:hint = "Enter Message"
      android:inputType = "text" />
   <Button
      android:id = "@+id/btnSend"
      android:layout_width = "match_parent"
      android:layout_height = "wrap_content"
      android:layout_alignParentBottom = "true"
      android:text = "SEND" />
</RelativeLayout>

Let's try to run your both server and client application. I assume you have connected your actual Android Mobile device with your computer. To run the app from android studio, open one of your project's activity files and click Run    icon from the toolbar. Select your mobile device as an option and then check your mobile device which will display your default screen –
