Async signaling library for ASP.NET to help build real-time, multi-user interactive web applications
Pushing data from the server to the client (not just browser clients) has always been a tough problem. SignalR makes it dead easy and handles all the heavy lifting for you.
See the documentation
Install-Package SignalR
Install-Package SignalR.Sample
After cloning the repository, run build.cmd.
If the SignalR.Samples csproj won't load when opening the solution in Visual Studio then download Web Platform Installer and install IIS Express.
