Web Worker Example

Open in StackBlitz

In this example, a website and its Web Worker are bridged with Prim+RPC. The website will act as a client and the Web Worker will act as the server.

While it's just as easy to use the Web Worker's built-in "message" event in this simple example, that can become tedious when there are many functions defined in a Web Worker, especially when you want to maintain TypeScript interfaces on those messages. Prim+RPC helps bridge this gap.

While not shown in this example, it's also possible to reverse the order so that the website acts as the server and the Web Worker acts as the client. You could even have both the website and Web Worker act as both the client and server (by setting up both the Prim+RPC client/server on the website and worker). For simplicity, these examples are not shown here but a more complex example may be created in the future to demonstrate this functionality.

The application (index.ts) is a Solid app created using Vite (you don't need to be familiar with either to use this example).

npm install
npm start
