About

A chat and news application still under active development. Authentication is in place, and responses are used for real-time delivery over plain HTTP. The main focus is performance: cutting time-to-interactive on a content-heavy streaming interface while pushing HTTP further than it is usually asked to go. Video channels are in scope for a later iteration.
