It has minimal dependencies (no boost), is very simple to use and support everything you'll likely need for websocket dev (SSL, deflate compression, compiles on most platforms, etc...). HTTP client and server code is also available, but it hasn't received as much testing. CORS is supported: custom headers such as `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` can be set on responses through the extra headers mechanism (see [#587](https://github.com/machinezone/IXWebSocket/issues/587)). It is been used on big mobile video game titles sending and receiving tons of messages since 2017 (iOS and Android). It was tested on macOS, iOS, Linux, Android, Windows and FreeBSD. Two important design goals are simplicity and correctness.
