    A Feathers real-time chat application

    Overall, your idea is pretty reasonable. You might consider using something like Feathers.js for your API/backend that provides some higher level messaging on top of WebSockets. That will take care of some of those lower-level details for you. In Feathers, your user would just subscribe to a named channel and your back end would post a message to the channel when something completes and then user would receive it. The Feathers example app is a real-time chat app that uses channels. The user guide goes through building that app.
