Programming Sockets in Python – Real Python
Sockets and the socket API are used to send messages across a network. They provide a form of inter-process communication (IPC). The network can be a logical, local network to the computer, or one that’s physically connected to an external network with its own connections to other networks. The obvious example is the Internet, which you connect to via your ISP.
In this video course, you’ll create:
- A simple socket server and client
- An improved version that handles multiple connections simultaneously
- A server-client application that functions like a full-fledged socket application, complete with its own custom header and content
