Overview¶
In the modern digital realm, real-time interactions have become a cornerstone for a multitude of applications. From real-time game updates to live chat systems, the importance of instantaneous communication cannot be overstated.
SignalR is a groundbreaking technology developed by Microsoft. It facilitates adding real-time web functionality to applications. Unlike traditional request-response models, SignalR allows the server to push content to connected clients instantly as it becomes available. This ensures that the application is always updated in real time. SignalR provides a simple API for creating server-to-client remote procedure calls (RPC) that calls functions in client applications from server-side .NET core code. Moreover, SignalR takes care of all the complexities involved in real-time communications, such as connection management, data serialization, and many more.
Best SignalR simplifies the process of integrating this innovative technology into your Unity projects. It's tailored to ensure robust and efficient bi-directional communication, providing your users with a dynamic and responsive application experience.
