## About Centrifugo
Centrifugo is an open-source real-time messaging server. Centrifugo can instantly deliver messages to application online users connected over supported transports (WebSocket, HTTP-streaming, SSE/EventSource, WebTransport, GRPC). Centrifugo is built around channel concept – clients subscribe to channels to receive publications – so it's a user-facing PUB/SUB server. Centrifugo is language-agnostic and can be used to build chat apps, live comments, multiplayer games, real-time data visualizations, collaborative tools, etc., in combination with any backend and frontend. It is well suited for modern architectures and allows decoupling of business logic from the real-time transport layer.
