WebSockets are much more intensive on your server resourses, as they must manage

If you wish to modify the source code, there are a few steps involved in
setting up your environment.
_code: Preparing the Package @lang<shell>
Since the library uses a monorepo, you must install an initial required
set of libraries, which can then be used to install the remaining libraries
used within each package, as well as link all the packages within the repo
with each other.

_subsection: Documentation @<contributing--documentation>
The documents are generated using [Flatworm](flatworm) documentation
generation tool, which was written for the purpose of writing the documentation
for ethers.
Style Guide (this section will have much more coming):
- Try to keep lines no longer than //around// 80 characters
- Avoid inline links in the source; use the ``externalLinks`` field in the config.js
- Prefix external links with ``link-``
- Changing an anchor name must be well justified, as it will break all existing links
to that section; flatworm will support symblinks in the future
- In general, I aim for xonsistency; look to similar situations throughout the documentation
_heading: Building
To build the documentation, you should first follow the
[above steps](contributing--building) to build the ethers library.
Building the docs will generate several types of output:
- A full set of HTML pages, linking across each other
- A single one-page HTML page with all pages linking to local anchors
- A full set of README.md pages organized to be browsable and linkable in GitHub
- A metadata dump for tool ingestion (still needs more work)
- (@TODO; only half done) The documentation as a LaTeX and generated PDF
_code: Building the Documentations @lang<shell>
/home/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm run build-docs
_heading: Evaluation
When building the documentation, all code samples are run through a JavaScript
VM to ensure there are no typos in the example code, as well the exact output
of results are injected into the output, so there is no need to keep the results
and code in-sync.
However, this can be a bit of a headache when making many small changes, so to
build the documentation faster, you can skip the evaluation step, which will
inject the code directly.
_code: Build docs skipping evaluation @lang<shell>
/home/ricmoo/ethers.js> npm run build-docs -- --skip-eval
_heading: Previewing Changes
To preview the changes locally, you can use any standard web server and run
from the ``/docs/`` folder, or use the built-in web server.
The same caveats as normal web development apply, such flushing browser
caches after changing (and re-building) the docs.

Ancillary Packages
------------------
These are a number of packages not included in the umbrella `ethers` npm package, and
additional packages are always being added. Often these packages are for specific
use-cases, so rather than adding them to the umbrella package, they are added as
ancillary packaged, which can be included by those who need them, while not bloating
everyone else with packages they do not need.
We will keep a list of useful pacakges here.
- `@ethersproject/experimental` ([documentation](https://docs.ethers.io))
- `@ethersproject/cli` ([documentation](https://docs.ethers.io))
- `@ethersproject/hardware-wallets` ([documentation](https://docs.ethers.io))
