soketi VS pusher-js

In today's article we will focus on one of my favorite trios, we will use the Next.js framework to build the web application, Drizzle to define the database schema and interact with it and perhaps the most important component of this article, Soketi.

Why you’ll love VenturSeed: • We are growing • Get to work with a global team • We all get along really well and have a fun company culture • We offer opportunities for growth https://github.com/soketi/soketi

Did you consider something like Soketi?

I have not used it, but listed Soketi for a while now, to test in the next project where I need a solution like this: https://soketi.app

you can use soketi : https://soketi.app/

Pusher protocol compliant websocket notification server https://soketi.app

Soketi on cloudflare workers should be a nice alternative -> https://soketi.app

Now let's push the notification to pusher. First you have to go to https://pusher.com/ login create an app an get API keys. Then fill them in your .env file

another tool is pusher but have a high cost https://pusher.com/

Pusher specializes in realtime WebSockets and offers a straightforward way to integrate realtime features into your React app. It's a reliable choice for apps that need to send notifications based on realtime events.

why are you considering building your own websocket service instead of using something like https://pusher.com/ ?

IVS offers chat rooms, but Kick doesn't seem to use them. All chat messages are sent over a websocket connection to Pusher. Pusher seems pretty cheap for the purpose.

Serveless Websocket service

Is it possible to use Supabase as a Pusher alternative?

if you are on time, since it is a coursework, and it is allowed to use some libraries, you can check how to use pusher it should be fairly easy for you too integrate to your application.

I've built a flutter web chat using flutter_chat_ui and dart_pusher_channels, for the backend I used soketi which is an open source node.js pusher replacement but you could just use pusher.com if you can squeeze into their free tier.

What? No. Takes 5-10 minutes to set up a websocket server manually or is just requires a few configuration variables to be set if using a hosted service like Pusher.
