The client API is also available in project exported to HTML5 using native Javascript code.

A small demo project is available in websocket_chat_demo to show how to use the module.

This module is still a work in progress.

  • Linux

You can run the demo server from a godot instance and connect to it with the demo client exported to Javascipt/HTML5, checkout the screenshot:
