The problem as far as I can see with all these implementations are that
they're for the server-side. The only client library seems to be the
official JS one. After a bit of searching I was able to find [1] which
seems to suggest that it's possible to connect using just a standard
websocket library and a bit of extra encoding/decoding. But then you're
back to the case that there don't seem to be many official/widely-used
websocket libraries for other languages either.

Wave in a Box currently uses raw WebSockets or the Socket.io library, based

Does anyone know of a fully functional WebSocket (or Socket.io) library in
Python, specifically?
Socket.io also has Java, GO and Ruby implementations; I can imagine it could
also be ported to Python.
What about any other languages? I'm certain there will be others who want to
develop this but are stuck on the issue.
