A Socket API that works across JavaScript runtimes — announcing a WinterCG spec and Node.js implementation of connect()

This post announces a significant milestone in the standardization of the connect() API for TCP sockets, a feature initially introduced for Cloudflare Workers. It details the publication of a draft specification by the WinterCG community and a Node.js compatible implementation. This advancement aims to create a unified socket API across JavaScript runtimes, simplifying library development and application deployment by bridging the gap between Workers and Node.js environments.
