Plenty of things use sessions, and I suspect most frameworks provide handy 
mechanisms to make using them easier. I expect that normally, as with PHP, 
you'd pass a cookie back to the user to track them and store the session state 
either in an in memory data structure (loses state over an app or web server 
restart) or in some persistent storage, typically a database of some kind 
(which also allows another process implementing your app/site to handle the 
state even if it did not issue the original session).

Cannot address your websockets query.
