What they don't teach you about sockets

published on 2022/07/26

In order to effectively write applications that communicate via sockets, there were some realizations I needed to make that weren't explicitly told to me by any of the documentation I read.

If you have experience writing applications using sockets, all of this information should be obvious to you. It wasn't obvious to me as an absolute beginner, so I'm trying to make it more explicit in the hopes of shortening another beginner's time getting their feet wet with sockets.
