How to Use

What is a WebSocket debugger? A WebSocket debugger connects to a ws:// or wss:// server, sends and receives messages, and shows the connection lifecycle. It is useful for testing realtime features during development.

How to use it 1. Enter a WebSocket URL. If you omit the prefix, ws:// is added for you. 2. Click Connect. 3. Watch the status badge change from Connecting to open. 4. Type a message and press Enter to send it. 5. Inspect incoming and outgoing messages with timestamps.

Reading the message list - marks messages you send. - marks messages you receive. - Text messages appear inline; binary messages are summarized with their byte count.

Tips - Close codes and reasons are shown when the server closes the connection. - Click Clear to empty the message list. - The socket is cleaned up when you leave the page.

Privacy Connections are made directly from your browser to the target server.
