Hey Nono...I got an error (no valid WebSocket class provided) at around 14:00mins when I tried to launch the client. After some googling...seems 'constructor' in line 9 of your WebClient code has been replaced with 'WebSocket' with all the changes to version 4 of the library. When I switched out 'contructor' with 'WebSocket'...the client launched. Oh...great video! Thanks for sharing!!

Great video sir... very helpful... can you do a video on how to display data on a browser that we got from a websocket stream

[Verion]

so if its on a vps do i have to change the port on the server.js to 80 instead of 3000 as well as in the client?

Hello there Nono, I'm tryig to make an online Browser based Basketball scoreboard, I think webSocket and your example will do the trick.. Is it possible to embed websocket on android app? and I also need a Peer to Peer connection like webRTC directly connected via WiFi between 2 devices, the client-end already has a browser. Capability.
