Core Pillars

Built for Production

Every feature designed with security and performance as the foundation.

Async Performance
Tokio
100% pure Tokio-based flow with zero-cost abstractions. Non-blocking I/O that scales to millions of concurrent connections.
handler.rs
async fn handle_connection(ws: WebSocket) {
    let (tx, rx) = ws.split();
    
    tokio::spawn(async move {
        // Zero-cost message routing
        while let Some(msg) = rx.next().await {
            process_message(msg).await;
        }
    });
}
Bulletproof Security
RAII
RAII-based IP rate limiting ensures resources are always properly cleaned up. JWT v10.3 validation built-in.

Built for Your Industry

From gaming studios to financial institutions, RustySocks powers mission-critical real-time infrastructure across industries.

Gaming
Real-time Multiplayer

The gaming example implements lobbies, matchmaking, and real-time game state sync. Shared state (lobbies, players, active games) is coordinated with async tasks over WebSockets.

Real-time state broadcast
View code
From the repo

Lobby creation, player list, and game invites are sent as JSON over the socket. The server maintains shared GameState with RwLock and spawns matchmaking and game-update services.

Trading & Market Data

The trading client example covers real-time market data, order management, and portfolio tracking. It subscribes to tickers, joins a trading_floor room, and processes orders and market updates.

Room-based subscription (trading_floor)
View code
From the repo

Clients join a trading_floor room and subscribe to symbols (e.g. AAPL, BTC-USD). Incoming messages drive portfolio and market data state; orders are sent over the same WebSocket.
