Actix is your door to developing web services with Rust and this documentation
is going to guide you.
This documentation currently covers mostly the `actix-web` part which is the
high level web framework previously built on top of the `actix` actor framework and the
[Tokio](https://tokio.rs/) async IO system. This is the part that is from an
API stability point of view the most stable.

Actix supports WebSockets out-of-the-box. It is possible to convert a request's `Payload`
to a stream of [*ws::Message*](../../actix-web/actix_web/ws/enum.Message.html) with
a [*ws::WsStream*](../../actix-web/actix_web/ws/struct.WsStream.html) and then use stream
to a stream of [*ws::Message*][message] with a [*ws::WsStream*][wsstream] and then use stream
combinators to handle actual messages, but it is simpler to handle websocket communications
with an http actor.
