Hotsock v1.13 introduces message reactions, presence member events on pub/sub (SNS/EventBridge), and a heartbeatTimeout claim for server-enforced connection liveness.

Hotsock v1.12 introduces channel storage for persistent per-key state on channels and live user metadata updates so clients can change their user metadata (umd) without reconnecting. Both features are designed to reduce the amount of state your backend needs to manage and push more real-time coordination into Hotsock itself.

Hotsock v1.10 is here with channel aliases for cleaner client-side channel names and automatic message fan-out for channels with large subscriber counts. It's been a while since the last feature post, so let's also catch up on some highlights from v1.8 and v1.9.

The latest Hotsock releases include automatic channel subscription on connect and broadcast messaging to unsubscribed channels, making it easier to build real-time applications with reduced client-side complexity.
