//In conjunction with Express
//Starting with 3.0, express applications have become request handler functions that you pass to http or http Server instances. You need to pass the Server to socket.io, and not the express application function. Also make sure to call .listen on the server, not the app.

//In conjunction with Koa
//Like Express.JS, Koa works by exposing an application as a request handler function, but only by calling the callback method.

//To integrate Socket.io in your Fastify application you just need to register fastify-socket.io plugin. It will create a decorator called io.
