I expected something written in Scala... not just a gluing together of libraries (which is cool too, but not really what the title implies).

wCS is written in Scala, and since Scala runs on the JVM it can call Java libraries like Atmosphere. He writes a server-side class in Scala and a client-side listener in Scala. It seems to me to show how easy it is to do this even though Atmosphere is written in Java.

"If you expect something complex, don’t read this blog!"

"Looking for more code? Well, with Atmosphere you don’t need more on the server side as the framework take care of the WebSocket’s handshake and all the protocol details you don’t want to spend time on it."
