No need to install from `@types` for TypeScript users!_\n\n# Usage\n\nThe following example shows usage with [Express](http://expressjs.com/), but Better SSE works with any web-server framework (that uses the underlying Node [HTTP module](https://nodejs.org/api/http.html)).\n\nSee the [Recipes](./docs/recipes.md) section of the documentation for use with other frameworks and libraries.\n\n---\n\nUse [sessions](./docs/api.md#session) to push events to clients:\n\n```typescript\n// Server\nimport {createSession} from \"better-sse\";\n\napp.get(\"/sse\", async (req, res) => {\n\tconst session = await createSession(req, res);\n\n\tsession.push(\"Hello world!\");\n});\n```\n\n```typescript\n// Client\nconst sse = new EventSource(\"/sse\");\n\nsse.addEventListener(\"message\", ({data}) => {\n\tconsole.log(data);\n});\n```\n\n---\n\nUse [channels](./docs/channels.md) to send events to many clients at once:\n\n```typescript\nimport {createSession, createChannel} from \"better-sse\";\n\nconst channel = createChannel();\n\napp.get(\"/sse\", async (req, res) => {\n\tconst session = await createSession(req, res);\n\n\tchannel.register(session);\n\n\tchannel.broadcast(\"A user has joined.\", \"join-notification\");\n});\n```\n\n---\n\nLoop over sync and async [iterables](./docs/api.md#sessioniterate-iterable-iterable--asynciterable-options-object--promisevoid) and send each value as an event:\n\n```typescript\nconst session = await createSession(req, res);\n\nconst list = [1, 2, 3];\n\nawait session.iterate(list);\n```\n\n---\n\nPipe [readable stream](#sessionstream-stream-readable-options-object--promiseboolean) data to the client as a stream of events:\n\n```typescript\nconst session = await createSession(req, res);\n\nconst stream = Readable.from([1, 2, 3]);\n\nawait session.stream(stream);\n```\n\n---\n\nCheck the [API documentation](./docs/api.md) and [live examples](https://github.com/MatthewWid/better-sse/tree/master/examples) for information on getting more fine-tuned control over your data such as managing event IDs, data serialization, event filtering, dispatch controls and more!\n\n# Documentation\n\nAPI documentation, getting started guides and usage with other frameworks is [available on GitHub](https://github.com/MatthewWid/better-sse/tree/master/docs).\n\n# Contributing\n\nThis library is always open to contributions, whether it be code, bug reports, documentation or anything else.\n\nPlease submit suggestions, bugs and issues to the [GitHub issues page](https://github.com/MatthewWid/better-sse/issues).\n\nFor code or documentation changes, [submit a pull request on GitHub](https://github.com/MatthewWid/better-sse/pulls).\n\n## Local Development\n\nInstall Node:\n\n```bash\ncurl -L https://git.io/n-install | bash\nn auto\n```\n\nInstall pnpm:\n\n```bash\nnpm i -g pnpm\n```\n\nInstall dependencies:\n\n```bash\npnpm i\n```\n\nRun tests:\n\n```bash\npnpm t\n```\n\n# License\n\nThis project is licensed under the MIT license.\n"

+
+```typescript
+import {createSession, createChannel} from "better-sse";
