I am pondering about writing a client/server software with
websockets as communication protocol. The clients will run
in browser as Javascript programs and the server may be in
any (any sensible) programming language running standalone
to be connected remotely by the browser-based JS clients.

Is there a library for (or sample server programs in) shell
that uses websockets for communication?

(Other language suggestions are also welcome; requirements
are a) simple to use, and b) few dependencies.[*] Any hints
and experiences appreciated.)

[*] I've found for example a simple_websocket_server based
Python code, but I'm lacking Python proficiency to judge
whether that's a good language for such things.

FWIW a few years back I found it easy to implement a client/server with
websockets using Go (google Golang) with no previous experience in that
language (it's very C-like and there are websockets packages for it).
The client side was also running Javascript.

Any given program will expand to fill available memory.
