Real-time chat with Fitz: typed WebSockets and AsyncAPI auto-generated
Short summary
Add real-time WebSocket dashboards with Fitz's @ws decorator for type-safe connections and automatic AsyncAPI schema generation. Auth, validation, and type-checking apply to WebSockets just like HTTP endpoints—no manual serialization needed. Broadcast messages to multiple connections and configure keepalive heartbeats in ~40 lines.
- •@ws decorator provides type-safe WebSocket endpoints with automatic serialization and AsyncAPI schema generation
- •Same auth, validation, and error handling from HTTP apply seamlessly to WebSocket frames
- •Broadcast to multiple connections and built-in heartbeat keepalive prevent connection timeouts in production
