Your experience writing WebSocket Server in C#?
2 projects | /r/csharp | 20 Nov 2021

I don't really recommend Websocket-Sharp, it has a lot of weird quirks, and a much older syntax structure/style, it just feels weird. If you must use a library, I have had good success with Vtortola's WebSocketListener or it's most active fork by deniszykov.
