WebSocket emulation - Javascript client

Project mention: WebSockets and Node.js - testing WS and SockJS by building a web app | dev.to | 2023-12-18

SockJS is a library that mimics the native WebSockets API. Additionally, it will fall back to HTTP whenever a WebSocket fails to connect, or if the browser being used doesn’t support WebSockets. Like WS, SockJS requires a server counterpart; its maintainers provide both a JavaScript client library and a Node.js server library.

:zap: Primus, the creator god of the transformers & an abstraction layer for real-time to prevent module lock-in.

Project mention: Technologies to create a chat application with different channels like Slack? | /r/node | 2023-05-06

Socket.io would work, but I'd recommend using primus with uws https://github.com/primus/primus
