pegasus-frontend VS websocat

You could try this front end. https://pegasus-frontend.org/

Have a look at pegasus-fe. Works on most OS (windows, macOS, linux, android etc.). It won't download games, but presents them in a very nice and efficient way. It also has many themes. Lastly, you can also launch programs, not only games !

Pegasus - seems like a proper launcher that can incorporate games from multiple stores? It seems promising.

Pegasus

I'm looking to create an emulation front-end (like Launchbox, Playnite, and Pegasus) using neo4j to store relationships between items (games, platforms, developers ect.). I've built myself a starting point in Java using JavaFX, but after trying to display items I'm starting to experience the limitations of that. I'm wondering if it might be a good idea for me to switch over to Unity at this point in development, before the application gets too big.

It's similar to running netcat in server mode, wrapping a script. It's even closer to doing that using websocat [1], whereby one does not have to do the websocket header juggling.

The main difference is that while netcat or websocat will spawn a new process for each connecting client, ScaleSocket has a concept of rooms (channels). For a room, a process is spawned once only. All clients connecting to the same room are routed to the same process. This is not straight forward to do using the forementioned tools.

There's a small comparison page [2] where I have mentioned some alternative tools.

one combination I came to really love this year is babashka (https://github.com/babashka/babashka) + websocat (https://github.com/vi/websocat). I wrote about a method of live web programming with this pair at https://github.com/whacked/cow/blob/main/a%20technique%20for...

babashka isn't strictly necessary; you can also pipe plain text, but pushing hiccup expressions to the browser DOM from the REPL with instant feedback has opened a new world of interactive programming for me.

No... the core of it is a django instance in the cloud with a Vue front end (what you're seeing in the screen shot). To push data in, the client connects to a websocket (using https://github.com/vi/websocat) and push key/value pairs in. I'm not in the middle of gameplay at all.

There's really nothing to this. I just have to provide the bus name and an optional pattern. Now using websocat, I get output like this:

Subscriptions is real-time streaming of data from server to client through WebSocket. You will need a constantly active connection to stream such events. You cannot use curl for this and have to use a WebSocket client like websocat if you want to access it via command line. Once executed, a stream of pending transaction IDs will start flowing in.
