Request: cross-platform websocket API

[jkelleyrtp]

I love using websockets, and frequently set them up for various projects, but there's no great websocket library that does both wasm and native.

I might be bad at sleuthing crates.io, but I can't find a ws library that has backoffs, reconnects, heartbeats, and works across platforms.

These looks nice:
https://crates.io/crates/reconnecting-websocket
https://crates.io/crates/stream-ws

As part of our sdk we should provide a really nice websocket library that we can point people to when they inevitably need websockets for their crossplatform apps.

It'd be great if this could also integrate with our future plans to integrate websockets into dioxus-fullstack / liveview.

I honestly don't see the point of doing this in the SDK. Don't get me wrong, the idea of having a simple library for WebSockets is a good idea, but it doesn't have to be connected to Dioxus at all. Maybe it could be done in a standalone repo under the DioxusLabs org.

When it comes to actual integrations with Dioxus in the form of hooks or other ways, that could definitely be done in the SDK

I agree. I'd say similar for a lot of stuff that may go in SDK, like mobile features.

I've wanted to release geolocation as it's own crate but have avoided it as more crates is more overhead.
