Unity SDK

To establish a connection between your Unity application and your client-side. You have to establish a websocket connection first.

Connect to websocket url ws://localhost:7788/ using your engine's built-in websocket client.

After establishing the connection, the messages you send to the websocket will be received on the JS side and vice-versa.
