In performance, WebSocket can offer better performance for applications that require real-time updates, as it allows for continuous data transfer without the need for repeated requests, but in terms of ease of Use: Socket.IO provides a user-friendly API that simplifies the implementation of real-time features, making it easier for developers to get started. |

In my opinion, both has pros and cons, so I strongly suggest to CHOOSE WebSocket if you need a lightweight, standardized protocol and are comfortable handling the complexities of connection management and browser compatibility, and CHOOSE Socket.IO if you prefer an easier implementation with built-in features, automatic reconnection, and fallback support for broader compatibility across different environments. |
