How it works¶
This section will explain how the connection will work.
1. The client requests the connection¶
The websocket connection MUST start as a normal normal HTTP request. The browser will call the given endpoint with a set of special headers asking for a websocket connection.
It happens when the client instantiates a new WebSocket object passing the
endpoint of our server:
1 2 | var socket = new WebSocket("/ws");
..

2. The server upgrades the connection¶
Once the server receives the connection, it will respond upgrading the connection.
