actually using UDP is the whole point. we explain why it's superior to TCP in the guides ( https://socketsupply.co/guides/#p2p-guide_how-p2p-works_why-... ). and our NAT traversal …

Yes! It will definitely work in Socket runtime. We don't have an example of how to use Qwick, we have examples of how to use React, Next, Vue since they are some of the most well k…

We dont have a tutorial for that yet, but we have reached a stable point with the p2p protocol and all the foundation has been laid for doing audio and video. Soon we will be relea…

There is also a brand new one called Socket which is similar to Tauri but doesn’t require knowing any Rust. It does all 5 platforms and it’s just pure HTML, CSS, and JS. It’s annou…
