Using sockets for one-directional communication?
I'm working on little MERN stack app and want to add real-time capabilities to the chat portion. I found this demo chat app on Github thats very similar to mine. It looks like they're using standard GET/POSTs throughout the application, but then on the server when they receive a message they're emitting the new data through socket.io. On the frontend they're simply listening to new messages through socket.io. This way they're essentially only using sockets one-directionally, from the server to the client. They never emit anything from the client side to the server, just POST it.
