GoWebSocket

GoWebSocket is a Go-based distributed WebSocket chat and instant messaging system designed around very high connection counts. It demonstrates how to build a scalable IM architecture using Go, Gin, Nginx load balancing, horizontal deployment, and internal service communication. The project uses gRPC for communication between program components and is structured to support distributed real-time messaging rather than a single-process chat demo. Its documentation highlights single-machine million-connection goals, making performance and concurrency central to the design. gowebsocket is useful for developers studying large-scale WebSocket systems, chat backends, connection management, and Go network programming. It is best treated as a technical reference and learning project for distributed real-time architecture.
