nes adds native WebSocket support to hapi-based application servers. Instead of treating the WebSocket connections as a separate platform with its own security and application context, nes builds on top of the existing hapi architecture to provide a flexible and organic extension.
Protocol version: 2.2.x (different from module version)
Lead Maintainer - Matt Harrison
The full client and server API is available in the API documentation.
The nes protocol is described in the Protocol documentation.

start();When you require('nes') it loads the full module and adds a lot of extra code that is not needed
for the browser. The browser will only need the nes client. If you are using CommonJS you can
load the client with require('nes/client').
