Engine.IO is a lightweight transport protocol that enables real-time
bidirectional event-based communication between clients (typically,
though not always, web browsers) and a server. The official
implementations of the client and server components are written in
JavaScript. This package provides Python implementations of both, each
with standard and asyncio variants.
The Engine.IO protocol is extremely simple. Once a connection between
a client and a server is established, either side can send "messages"
to the other side. Event handlers provided by the applications on both
ends are invoked when a message is received, or when a connection is
established or dropped.
