Note: I am not an iOS developer. I’ve only recently dived into Swift. Brendan Lynch—our iOS dev—has provided a great deal of support in getting Socket.IO running on iOS. I’m going to assume that you’re semi familiar with iOS dev (and pseudo-code) and that I don’t need to show you the basics. The code in this post was tested against Xcode 6 Beta 5. Finally, I would like to give a shout out to Jon M
