In my case I need a use react as a front and dotnet is a back end. I don't know how to use with this library. I am very new to the area. So can anyone please help me to get started.

Thank you so much for replying. Seems WebsocketProvider creates the local web server. Can you show me where the backend is integrated?

How the web socket provider hosted in dotnet application?
How web socket you are exposed in dotnet?

It is in the same project: https://github.com/y-crdt/ydotnet/tree/main/Demo

Basically you can either use one of these methods to "open" the endpoint:

1. The middleware: https://github.com/y-crdt/ydotnet/blob/main/Demo/Program.cs#L83
2. Return a ydotnet result in the controller: https://github.com/y-crdt/ydotnet/blob/main/Demo/Controllers/CollaborationController.cs#L11

ofc you also have to register all the services.
