# The net/usockets port

## usockets-0.8.1p0 – eventing, networking & crypto for async applications

## Description

    uSockets is the cross-platform async networking and eventing foundation
    library used by uWebSockets.

    Key aspects:
    * Built-in (optionally available) TLS support exposed with identical
      interface as for TCP.
    * Acknowledges and integrates with any event-loop via a layered
      hierarchical design of plugins.
    * Extremely pedantic about user space memory footprint and designed
      to perform as good as can be.
    * Designed from scratch to map well to user space TCP stacks or
      other experimental platforms.
    * Low resolution timer system ideal for performant tracking of
      networking timeouts.
    * Minimal yet truly cross-platform, will not emit a billion
      different platform specific error codes.
    * Fully opaque library, inclusion will not completely pollute
      your global namespace.
