How to use Vue with WebSockets
Thursday, January 15, 2026
Implementing WebSockets in Vue enables real-time, bidirectional communication for live updates, chat applications, and streaming data. As the creator of CoreUI with over 12 years of Vue.js experience since 2014, I’ve built real-time dashboards with WebSocket connections. Vue’s reactivity system works seamlessly with WebSocket messages, automatically updating the UI when new data arrives. This approach creates responsive applications with live data synchronization without polling.
