socket.io 1.0 prerelease?

[soliton4]

can i get a prerelease of 1.0 somewhere?
is it very unstable?

thank you!

npm install LearnBoost/socket.io

Don't use it in production, yet. But it's great to migrate your code in time.

@tracid there is no npm package called "LearnBoost/socket.io"
if i try the code you posted i get
"Could not install LearnBoost/socket.io"

you propaply mean npm install socket.io

but last time i checked there was no binary support in that version.
i am looking for the promised binary support in 1.0
there is supposed to be a implementation.
can i get it somewhere?

@soliton4 it should be lowercase, and that tells npm to install it from github instead of the registry.

funny it works on my linux machine but not in windows
anyway thx

why not use it in production yet? are there big issues?

npm install socket.io@1.0.0-pre
should also work
