I just integrated the Tyrus WebSocket Client in a TornadoFX app for some real time reporting from a backup software we've written. It was very smooth and it got me thinking that maybe we should have a WebSocket client abstraction that deals with JSON payloads, kind of like the REST API but for WebSockets. It's noticeably faster than REST, and very easy to deal with. I bet it's a good match for Rx enthusiasts also.
