Replace http requests with websockets #2

Description

@aspauldingcode

@LiamEarl would like to work on a reimplementation of the API connection (excluding api/health endpoint) allowing for websocket connection instead of http.

The potential benefits include:

  • Real-time updates: server can push data instantly
  • Lower latency: persistent connection avoids repeated handshakes
  • Reduced network overhead: smaller messages than repeated HTTP requests
  • Efficient server push: no polling needed for new data
  • Better scalability for live apps: fewer HTTP requests under load
  • Enables interactive experiences: smooth live updates and multiplayer interactions
