engine io online with Winfy

We have hosted the application engine io in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about engine io:

In most cases, the connection will be established with WebSocket, providing a low-overhead communication channel between the server and the client. Rest assured! In case the WebSocket connection is not possible, it will fall back to HTTP long-polling. And if the connection is lost, the client will automatically try to reconnect. Scale to multiple servers and send events to all connected clients with ease. Socket.IO is a library that enables real-time, bidirectional and event-based communication between the browser and the server. There are also several client implementation in other languages, which are maintained by the community. The client will try to establish a WebSocket connection if possible, and will fall back on HTTP long polling if not. WebSocket is a communication protocol which provides a full-duplex and low-latency channel between the server and the browser.

• Node.js server

• You can consider the Socket.IO client as a "slight" wrapper around the WebSocket API
• Socket.IO provides additional features over a plain WebSocket object
• It adds additional metadata to each packet
• Socket.IO is not meant to be used in a background service, for mobile applications
