So, you want to start building realtime event driven applications using the new HTML5 WebSocket API? - You want it to work in all browsers, no matter if they have WebSocket support or not
- You don't want to rely on proprietary technology such as Flash to provide a fallback
- And naturally, you don't want to write more than one implementation
Introducing, the Graceful WebSocket - Implements the w3c WebSocket interface
- Wraps the native WebSocket if support is detected
- Provides a default fallback using traditional AJAX polling over HTTP
- Requires no extra code on the frontend, allows you to target the WebSocket API today and let users take advantage of it as more browsers add support.
- Default fallback behavior can be overridden by plugin options
