Yes, WebSockets are very simple to implement a server or a client for. It’s a small variable size header, 5 or so frame types and a typically constant mask over the contents.

Hehe, yeah.. I recently touched WebSockets and yes, its complicated stuff. But hey, for vibe coders everything is easy, right? ;)
