[Bug 1379303] [NEW] Need support for a JS socket api

 

Public bug reported:

Firefox OS does have TCPSocket and chrome does have Sockets(for
extensions), which will let HTML5 apps to act like a network client(IRC
client, whatsapp/gtalk, fb chat app, monitoring app) for TCP and UDP
connections instead of relying on a server to handle the communication.
