I didn't even know cURL had IPFS support. How does it work? I take that it doesn't have its own embedded node? Is it just using a HTTP gateway?

Very nice. I keep being annoyed by having no tool to quickly test websockets in Fedora (that doesn't require me to install npm or other large dependencies).

For some deeper analysis I like https://github.com/vi/websocat.

Websockets already been there, I don't know at official level or not. I tried to use them from C code but failed and gave ip. It seems now it is time to re-check. Usually Curl does its job very well, I like the library
