# Websockets
Actix Web supports WebSockets with the `actix-web-actors` crate. It is possible to convert a request's `Payload` to a stream of [_ws::Message_][message] with a [_web::Payload_][payload] and then use stream combinators to handle actual messages, but it is simpler to handle websocket communications with an http actor.
The following is an example of a simple websocket echo server:
<CodeBlock example="websockets" file="main.rs" section="websockets" />
> A simple websocket echo server example is available in the [examples directory][examples].
> An example chat server with the ability to chat over a websocket or TCP connection is available in [websocket-chat directory][chat]
