gollark: The protocol is fairly simple: open websocket to `wss://osmarks.tk/skynet/connect/[channel name]` and send/receive JSON.
gollark: It can connect to out of Minecraft stuff, yes.
gollark: https://pastebin.com/G2PMCNhFSkynet: simple websocket-based data transfer (ask if you want the server code).Use with `local skynet = require "skynet"````skynet.receive(channel) - receive a message on the given channelskynet.send(channel, data) - send a message (can be any JSON-serializable type) on the given channelskynet.listen() - convert "websocket_message"s to "skynet_message"sskynet.open(channel) - kind of internal, open "channel" - returns a raw websocket, which you must not use or the world shall burn in nuclear fire.```
gollark: Websocket rednetish.
gollark: Also, I made `skynet` anyway, which is basically not-exactly-backwards-compatible rednet over a websocket server.
