Problem

Related to HTTP2 vs WebSockets (#358), there's this article about using HTTP keep-alive to prevent unnecessary connections.

Also, for various reasons, including but not limited to the following, we probably want to get rid websockets:

  • Primus is a large dependency we don't need (Get rid of dependencies + Adopt/fork rest #372 - get rid of dependencies)
  • Running a server is easier from a user UI/UX perspective if we stick to a single port and access point
  • And this keep-alive thing

Solution

Erm, well, the above, and related notes and links in issue #358.

From what I've read websockets are fine/great and we'll stick with them.
