&gt; Right now, client WebSockets are only available for the CIO Client Engine.

and CIO is not available for js as far as i can see
i oiginally inteded to use websockets because people told me its built into the browser/js, so i thought it would be available in the `JS` client
or was i just blind and there is a multiplatform js artifact for CIO and websockets?

it’s only available *on JVM* for the CIO client 

The JS clients have websockets built in on 1.2.0-rc

FYI Kotlin JS has access to the JS WebSockets API ( <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WebSockets_API> ; <https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/org.w3c.dom/-web-socket/index.html> ).

&gt; Right now, client WebSockets are only available for the CIO Client Engine.

<@UBBFK40RZ> I had interpreted the situation as 'WebSockets are only _integrated_ with the Coroutine I/O API, on the JVM'.  However that doesn't mean that WebSockets themselves are limited to the JVM.  Are you saying you *have* to have CIO integration?

No i do not think so, but i do need a abstraction layer to use it for jvm and js from common code, 1.2.0-rc seems to have that

That was good timing then, as it's just been released :slightly_smiling_face:
