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.
