WebSocket library for a Phoenix application

I have a Phoenix application. I’m confused: which websocket library is recommended and most popular? I know of a few, which is de-facto? Or which one would you recommend?

Channels in Phoenix – isn’t what I’m looking for.

It is included in phoenix, You don’t need any package, You just need to configure…

Have a look here http://www.phoenixframework.org/docs/channels

Not really. Channels is something Phoenix built on top of websockets. It’s “related” the way controllers are related to HTTP.

You could always use Cowboy directly, which is what Phoenix abstracts / enhances. On the downside, it’s in erlang, so not that approachable, on the upside, you can look at the Phoenix source code for pointers on how to integrate + the Cowboy documentation is good.
