Great article

I just love how brief and concise the article is, the only problem I find in it is that it is quite confusing for someone with no knowledge of socket.io, as you only posted the code and what it does, but you didn't explain how the code works 🤷

In the end the purpose was just to give an overview of socket.io, and it delivered that successfully

You could have also added the benefits of socket.io

I appreciate you reading the article and taking the time to comment. I value your openness and sensitivity over the level of info offered. I totally agree with you that the article's goal was to give a general overview of socket.io, and I'm sorry if the use of code-only formatting confused readers who aren't familiar with the subject.

I'm delighted the article was clear and to the point for you. I'll make sure to take into account your recommendations for future articles to highlight the advantages of using socket.io and to provide more context and explanation for the code.

Once more, I want to thank you for your comments and for helping me get better at writing.

Why does this your response sound like something from chatGPT 😂😂

The article was really good oh boss, I also try to make my articles as brief and concise as this, it's not like I am an expert writer, I am also learning technical writing 🤲

The response is certainly generic but i can't access chatGPT at the moment. I didn't even know you were a Altschooler like me lol.
I have also updated it. Turns out that i had that written already on my medium but didn't update it here.
