Is there server side streaming?

[124C41p]

Does Leptos support streaming events from server to client (maybe in form of a server function returning a signal getter (on client side) instead of an ordinary value)? Or is it planned for the future?

This would be really nice for building chat applications or something similar.

Yeah take a look at the <MultiuserCounter/> component in this example. It is using server-sent events (SSE) and an EventSource to do the kind of thing you're talking about.

I don't have a plan at the moment to provide additional wrappers for this kind of behavior in the framework but it would be feasible to do in userland or as a library.

Oh, I must have overlooked that example. Thanks a lot!

Yeah counter_isomorphic is not necessarily the most obvious name for where you'd find that :-D
