# Get Rich Quick! Using Boost.Beast WebSockets and Networking TS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Do you want to make a lot of money? You'll see some examples of free
|
||
|
|
browser and server based WebSocket programs which have earned their
|
||
|
|
respective individual authors tens of millions of dollars in no time
|
||
|
|
at all. Perhaps after seeing this talk in person, you'll write the
|
||
|
|
next massively successful WebSocket app!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The WebSocket protocol powers the interactive web by enabling two-way
|
||
|
|
messaging between the browser and the web server. The Boost.Beast
|
||
|
|
library implements this protocol on top of the industry standard
|
||
|
|
Boost.Asio library which models the Networking Technical Specification
|
||
|
|
proposed for the ISO C++ Standard.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This presentation introduces Networking TS concepts and algorithms,
|
||
|
|
how to read their requirements, and how to use them in your programs.
|
||
|
|
We will build from scratch a multi-user chat server in C++11 using
|
||
|
|
Beast, and the corresponding browser-based chat client in HTML and
|
||
|
|
JavaScript. No prior knowledge or understanding of Beast or Asio is
|
||
|
|
required, the talk is suited for everyone.
