    I’m surprised no one mentioned web sockets. They’re extremely easy to get started with and you can have a full bi-directional communication in no time. I think there’s a native solution, but we’ve been using (WebSocketSharp)[https://github.com/sta/websocket-sharp] for a few years and it’s really simple to get started / gives good results for some heavy network communications as well.
