Working with WebSockets in Angular apps
3:55-4:40pm
5th Floor Music Box & Winter Garden
In this session you'll learn how to write Angular applications that communicate with server using the WebSocket protocol, which is an
efficient and a low-overhead way or communication between the browsers and servers. One of the most valuable features of WebSocket
communications is that the server can initiate the data push to the client without waiting for the client to request the data. After getting a
brief overview of the benefits of WebSockets over HTTP, you'll see a code review of a sample Angular/Node.js app that uses WebSockets.
