This got into the zeitgeist somehow. I just implemented my first SSE app with FastAPI last week, then I saw a youtube video and this post!
I was implementing something with websockets and asked chatgpt to tell me about modern alternatives. In my years of full-stack… I hadn’t heard of SSE, or at least never got why I should care.
Damn, I see the limitations of REST, but I was building state machines and custom protocols with websockets. It’s nice to prototype in REST again.

REST+SSE ftw, I guess!
