It allows for both synchronous (like TcpStream) +and asynchronous usage and is easy to integrate into any third-party event loops including +[MIO](https://github.com/carllerche/mio). The API design abstracts away all the internals of the +WebSocket protocol but still makes them accessible for those who wants full control over the +network. + +This library is a work in progress. Feel free to ask questions and send us pull requests. + +Why Tungstenite? +---------------- + +It's formerly WS2, the 2nd implementation of WS. WS2 is the chemical formula of +tungsten disulfide, the tungstenite mineral. + +Features +-------- + +Tungstenite provides a complete implementation of the WebSocket specification. +TLS is supported on all platforms using native-tls. + +There is no support for permessage-deflate at the moment. It's planned. + +Testing +------- + +Tungstenite is thoroughly tested and passes the [Autobahn Test Suite](http://autobahn.ws/testsuite/) for +WebSockets. It is also covered by internal unit tests as good as possible. + +Contributing +------------ + +Please report bugs and make feature requests [here](https://github.com/snapview/tungstenite-rs/issues).
