The 'websocket-stream' package provides a stream interface for WebSockets. It allows you to send and receive data over WebSocket connections using Node.js streams. While @smithy/eventstream-serde-browser is focused on event stream serialization and deserialization, 'websocket-stream' is more about managing WebSocket connections and data transfer.
