For something this simple, what do they offer above the basic socket
module? I know that sounds critical but it's not meant to be; I've
never looked into either, as I've grown up using the BSD socket APIs
(in C, 80x86 assembly, C++, REXX, Java, Pike, and Python, on DOS (I
think), OS/2, Windows, and Linux... and possibly other
languages/platforms that I've now forgotten), and am comfortable with
them; but for someone who hasn't been in networking for two decades,
is there a noteworthy ease-of-starting difference? Bear in mind that
use of a framework locks you in to that framework and its ecosystem
(so, most likely, language), while grokking sockets themselves gives
you the freedom to move as required.
