WebRocket is a hybrid of MQ and WebSockets server with great support for horizontal scalability. WebRocket is very fast and easy to use from both sides: backend (via MQ connection) and frontend (via WebSockets). This combination will lead you to new quality of web development and will finally make bidirectional Web easy for everyone.
The file INSTALL.md in this directory explains how to build and install
WebRocket on various systems, once you have unpacked or checked out the
entire WebRocket file tree.
See the file NEWS.md for information on new features and other user-visible
changes in recent versions of WebRocket.
