WebSocket ++
C++ websocket client/server library
WebSocket++'s goal is to provide a flexible set of tools for building a wide variety of WebSocket based applications wrapped by low or zero overhead abstractions. It is not opinionated. If something can be practically replacable (with low overhead) based on the user's preference then it is. It accomplishes this via a policy based design built using C++ template metaprogramming. WebSocket++ is a cross platform open source (BSD license) header only C++ library that implements RFC6455 (The WebSocket Protocol) and RFC7692 (Compression Extensions for WebSocket). It allows integrating WebSocket client and server functionality into C++ programs. In its most common configuration full featured network I/O is provided by the Asio Networking Library. Bundled config packages provide sane defaults so most users can get started quickly. As they understand their solution better and want to optimize, the default components can be reconfigured or replaced entirely and transparently. -

ws
Tiny WebSocket library for Go
Zero-copy upgrade. No intermediate allocations during I/O. Low-level API which allows building your own logic of packet handling and buffers reuse. High-level wrappers and helpers around API in wsutil package, which allow to start fast without digging the protocol internals. Existing WebSocket implementations do not allow users to reuse I/O buffers between connections in clear way. This library aims to export efficient low-level interface for working with the protocol without forcing only one way it could be used. Library is tagged as v1* so its API must not be broken during some improvements or refactoring. Example applications using ws are developed in separate repository ws-examples. We can apply the same pattern to read and write structured responses through a JSON encoder and decoder.Zero-copy upgrade helps to avoid unnecessary allocations and copying while handling HTTP Upgrade request. -

Rhubarb
A WebSocket library optimized for multiplayer JS games
Rhubarb is a lightweight WebSocket library for multiplayer HTML5 games. It is originally designed to be used by the ROYGBIV Engine. However, it can be used outside of ROYGBIV as well. Javascript is slow, therefore we want to have as much main-process-power as we can in order to do game related calculations, graphics rendering and achieving 60 FPS. For multiplayer games achieving 60 FPS gets even more complicated given that transferring data over WebSockets is a slow operation. It also triggers GC activity by copying the transferred data (if JSON is the preferred way), which eventually slows down the main thread as well. -

Tyrus
Eclipse Tyrus is the open source JSR 356 - Java API for WebSocket
Eclipse Tyrus is the open source JSR 356 - Java API for WebSocket reference implementation for easy development of WebSocket applications.Eclipse Tyrus is also a Jakarta WebSocket 2.0 compatible implementation. WebSocket protocol defined by IETF provides bi-directional communication between the server and the remote host. The pros are mainly the ability to communicate both ways, low latency and small communication overhead. Therefore Tyrus and WebSocket in general are suitable for web applications that require sending a huge volume of relatively small messages like online games or market ticker broadcasting. -
