Smoke is an amazing project but there is not activity is the public repository. What is the status of this project? Is it dead?

@ansarizafar Hi. This project is not dead, but it has been in a rather lengthy pending state while I've waited on a few web specifications to iron themselves out (and for a time I've been a bit less busy with other work). I will be returning to development on smoke at some point, possibly under a new name (leaving smoke as a working prototype name), with API's less aligned with node, and more with emerging browser API.

Hopefully that provides a little bit of insight into the state of the library. Thanks for the interest! S

Hi! It is great project. Will I be able to use your project now to process requests on the client side?

Hopping for a new release this year.

@ansarizafar Just released a new version of this project (which is a complete rebuild). Most of the existing functionality has been retained, however the API's have been modernized inline with modern WHATWG JavaScript network primitives.

Currently the project only supports localhost connections, but will be updating the new Public hub along with a reference WebSocket server implementation at a later time.

Latest version can be installed with

$ npm install @sinclair/smoke

Will close off this issue for now. S
