How to include socket io in chrome extension? I am n
Note in 2020:
Rahat's answer is fine except the socket version , when you use it in background script it always reconnects , so if you use inappropriate version of socket.io.js you 'll get something like this
but with socket.io.js 2.3.0 worked correctly as it should here is a link which worked for me https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/socket.io-client@2/dist/socket.io.js
More info at https://www.npmjs.com/package/socket.io-client
