We try to make the library as fast as possible, without compromising on readability of the code or features.

All the components can easily be swapped out with your own.

Nextcore offers fine-grained control over things most libraries don't support.
This currently includes:
- Setting priority for individual requests
- Swapping out components
A simple "ping pong" example in nextcore. This will respond with "pong" each time someone sends "ping" in the chat.
