Frequently Asked Questions

What breaks SSE streams?

Missing double-newline terminators, wrong Content-Type (must be text/event-stream), and buffering proxies. The formatter flags all three.

Retry field meaning?

Millisecond reconnection delay the client honors after drops. Set 3000 for normal feeds; higher for expensive reconnects.

SSE vs WebSockets?

SSE for server→client streams (simpler, auto-reconnect); WebSockets for bidirectional. One-way dashboards belong on SSE.

Is stream data uploaded?

No — formatting runs locally in your browser. Streams never leave your device.
