js.io: client library for networking
Written by on October 6th, 2008 in Uncategorized.
Michael Carter et al have been working on js.io, a client library that gives you networking, including Comet like support, via JavaScript.
The low level work can sit upon Comet APIs, and in the future, Web Sockets, and you get high level APIs to protocols such as:
- amqp
- imap
- irc
- ldap
- smtp
- ssh
- stomp
- telnet
- xmpp
There are some demos such as LiveHelp that uses Orbited as the backend.
