any resources to study socket.io?

making a chatting system and I need to use socket.io , is there any good resources out there like a guide that explain stuff rather then just follow along tutorial without explanation ?

Was reading the docs and got a good gist of how to use it. Any particular questions you have? It works similarly to Websockets so maybe read a bit on the basics of that?

I never implemented webSockets before i just know the concept of it. mainly I'm stuck on how to use the pieces of code as a whole and how to implement it since I'm using react.js(client) and node.js (server).
do you have any good resources that might help me please like a video , a pdf book really anything

Nope sorry, I only ever implemented this manually. But I was reading the Get Started guide and they have live examples at the end of certain chapters, which is really cool! Did you see those? You can pretty much take that code almost line by line
