Welcome to Loco 🚋

Loco is a web and API framework running on Rust.

This is a chatroom example to show how websockets are implemented.

Note that this is not a regular WebSocket application, you'll need to use socket.io on the client side to get this to work. Socket.io supports long-polling fallbacks, rooms, and other things that raw WebSockets don't support. See Axum websocket example for inspiration for building a pure WebSocket application.
