Introduction to Real-time with tRPC
Understand the concepts behind real-time communication and how tRPC extends to handle subscriptions.
Stay Updated: What is Real-time?
Real-time communication means getting updates instantly, as they happen. Unlike traditional web pages where you refresh to see new content, real-time apps push new information to you immediately.
Traditional vs. Real-time Interactions
Understanding the difference is key:
- Traditional APIs: You send a request, the server sends a response. Each action needs a new request.
- Real-time: Once connected, the server can send updates to you anytime, without you asking again. It's like a continuous conversation.
