About websocat
Websocat is a command-line client for WebSockets, with functionality compared to netcat or curl for WebSocket connections and advanced socat-like capabilities. WebSockets provide a persistent, two-way communication channel between a client and a server. A terminal client can help developers test or interact with such endpoints directly. The product description references ws:// addresses and indicates a broader set of connection functions, but does not list specific options, protocols beyond WebSockets, or message handling behavior. Those details should be checked for a particular task. Its documented role is a command-line interface for WebSocket communication and related connection workflows. The client is used from a terminal session.
