Socket.io helps in delivering messages to client in real time. Behind the scene socket.io creates a bi-directional channel between server and client therefore enabling bidirectional communication between web client and server. For demo code I have used a golang server therefor i have used a golang library called go-socket.io . Some advance socket.io concepts which you should be aware are channel, event, namespace and rooms.
