Socket Cluster

https://socketcluster.io

The SocketCluster frontend is the main user facing access point for notabug.

It manages HTTP responses and WebSocket connections that data transfers over.

Connections to SocketCluster can be authenticated (separate from UI facing login)

Authenticated logins may be granted additional privileges, such as the ability to subscribe to or publish to channels.

Currently SocketCluster serves the application JS as static files
