Laravel Websockets – Package Usage & Demos

Laravel By Builder

http://usefullaravelpackages.com

We take a look at the Laravel Websockets package by Freek from Spatie and Marcel from beyondcode. This package is a websockets server written in PHP and can be used as a replacement for Pusher. We take a look at getting the demo chat application running and we also convert one of my projects using Pusher to use this package instead. We then take some time to get it running on a real production server, set up supervisor and make sure everything is encrypted.
