## What it is
A Node.js/TypeScript Socket.io server that handles Laravel Echo broadcasting, including private and presence channel authentication. It is configured via a JSON file and managed with a CLI tool, using Redis or SQLite for persistence.

## Use cases
- run a websocket server for laravel echo
- broadcast real-time events to laravel app
- set up presence channels with socket.io
- authenticate private broadcast channels in laravel
- replace pusher with a self-hosted socket.io server

## When to choose
- you use Laravel Echo and want a self-hosted Socket.io broadcasting server instead of Pusher
- you need presence or private channel support with Laravel's auth endpoint
- you want a simple CLI-configured realtime server backed by Redis

## When to avoid
- you use Laravel Reverb or a maintained official broadcasting solution
- your project is not Laravel/Echo-based
- you need a general-purpose websocket server unrelated to Laravel broadcasting

## Facets
- artifact type: service
- maturity: maintenance
- function: websocket, http-server, cli, middleware
- domain: web-development, backend
- platform: cli
