+### Configuring a WebSocket Proxy
+
+When setting up a WebSocket proxy, there are a some extra considerations to be aware of.
+If you're using a WebSocket engine like [Socket.io](https://socket.io/), you must have a Socket.io server running that you can use as the proxy target.
+Socket.io will not work with a standard WebSocket server. Specifically, don't expect Socket.io to work with [the websocket.org echo test](http://websocket.org/echo.html)
+There's some good documentation available for [setting up a Socket.io server](https://socket.io/docs/)
+
+Standard WebSockets **will** work with a standard WebSocket server as well as the websocket.org echo test.
+You can use libraries like [ws](https://github.com/websockets/ws) for the server, with [native WebSockets in the browser](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WebSocket)
+
+Either way, you can proxy WebSocket requests manually in `package.json`
+```js
+{
+  // ...
+  "proxy": {
+    "/socket": {
+      // Your compatible WebSocket server
+      "target": "ws://<socket_url>",
+      // Tell http-proxy-middleware that this is a WebSocket proxy.
+      // Also Allows you to proxy WebSocket requests without an additional http request
+      // https://github.com/chimurai/http-proxy-middleware#external-websocket-upgrade
+      "ws": true
+      // ...
+    }
+  }
+  // ...
+}
+```
