[NEW] SFS2X 2.13.0 available!

SmartFoxServer 2X Patch 2.13 is available for download.
We have just released a new major update for SmartFoxServer 2X that focuses mainly on Javascript for both client and server side.

As anticipated in our previous newsletter we're gladly re-introducing Javascript as a server-side language for Extensions, thanks to the improved performance of the Nashorn engine, provided in JDK 8.

We're also launching an improved support for HTML5 websocket via Jetty web-server and with a redesigned client API that fully supports the SFS2X binary protocol.

The consolidation of client and server-side Javascript is part of an effort to make websockets and HTML-based applications first class citizens in the SmartFoxServer platform together with all the other client technologies. In this effort we're also dropping the legacy Netty websocket engine, integrating all web services via Jetty 9.x.

You can download the update from here.

NOTE: Before you update to SFS2X 2.13 make sure to review our websocket migration page
in our documentation.

Hi,

I just need to know one thing.

Why should I upgrade to smartfoxserver 2.13 because I am smoothly running my app on SFS2.9?
