Tiny WebSocket Middleware

tinyws is a lightweight, framework-agnostic WebSocket middleware for Node.js, built upon the popular `ws` library. It enables WebSocket capabilities for HTTP servers, integrating seamlessly with frameworks like tinyhttp, Express, and Polka by exposing a `req.ws()` method. The current stable version is 1.0.0, as of April 2026. This package distinguishes itself from alternatives like `express-ws` by being actively maintained, providing first-class TypeScript support, being pure ESM, and boasting a minimal footprint (under 500B). Its primary release cadence appears to be focused on stability and maintenance rather than rapid feature additions, making it a reliable choice for adding WebSockets to modern Node.js applications.
