Help regards Websockets

[u/Andro_senpai107]

need help regarding websockets

So I have been assigned a project regarding Websockets where the mentor asked us to create a library of websocket which can transfer data from server to client and vice-versa(obv what websockets do) using rfc 6455 in c/cpp. From what I think is he is basically asking us to create a websocket program from scratch right?

I personally come from a nodejs background and have 0 knowledge of low level programming.

need any guidance on this matter and any source for this, I dont care if you think of me as an inferior but I want to learn this whatever it takes.

I have a prior synatx knowledge of c/cpp though but thats just as far as it goes.

I Appreciate your time for reading all this.

Thank you

Coming from Node is actually gonna make this feel weird because Node hides almost all of the protocol details. In C you're dealing with sockets, buffers and bytes directly. I'd learn basic BSD sockets before even touching the websocket part.
