Websockets

WebSockets are a protocol designed for full-duplex web communications, enabling real-time, bidirectional communication between clients and servers over a single, long-lived connection. Unlike traditional HTTP, which operates on a request-response model, WebSockets allow the server to push data to the client without requiring a request from the client, and vice versa. This capability is essential for modern web applications that demand instantaneous communication, such as chat applications, live notifications, and online gaming ⁵.

One of the key characteristics of WebSockets is their ability to maintain a persistent connection, which reduces the overhead associated with establishing multiple HTTP connections. This single TCP connection allows both the client and server to send messages independently at any time, facilitating a more dynamic and responsive user experience ⁵.

WebSockets are widely supported across various web browsers and frameworks, making it easier for developers to implement them in their applications. Resources such as Mozilla’s Developer Resources and various tutorials can help developers understand and utilize WebSockets effectively ¹².
