WebSocket Connection Failed on Replit
WebSocket connections fail with network errors or close immediately. Real-time features like chat or notifications don't work.
WebSocket configuration and deployment differences between local and Replit cause issues.
Error Messages You Might See
WebSocket connection to 'ws://...' failed
Could not upgrade to WebSocket
Error: Could not find message broker relay
Common Causes
- WebSocket endpoint not exposed or misconfigured
- CORS not allowing WebSocket upgrade requests
- Proxy/load balancer not forwarding WebSocket protocol
- Client using wrong WebSocket URL (ws instead of wss, or localhost)
- StompBroker not configured for Spring WebSocket
How to Fix It
For Spring WebSocket, use WebSocketConfigurer and registerStompEndpoints(). Enable CORS with allowed origins. Client should use 'wss://' (secure WebSocket) on Replit. Verify endpoint path matches client connection URL. Check browser console for actual error message and upgrade handshake details.

Caio Rodrigues
I'm a full-stack developer focused on building practical and scalable web applications. My main experience is with **React, TypeScript, and modern frontend architectures**, where I prioritize clean code, component reusability, and maintainable project structures.
I have strong experience working with **dynamic forms, state management (Redux / React Hook Form), and complex data-driven interfaces**. I enjoy solving real-world problems by turning ideas into reliable software that companies can actually use in their daily operations.
Beyond coding, I care about **software quality and architecture**, following best practices for componentization, code organization, and performance optimization.
I'm also comfortable working across the stack when needed, integrating APIs, handling business logic, and helping transform prototypes into production-ready systems.
My goal is always to deliver solutions that are **simple, efficient, and genuinely useful for the people using them.**

I am a technologist and product builder dedicated to creating high-impact solutions at the intersection of AI and specialized markets. Currently, I am focused on PropScan (EstateGuard), an AI-driven SaaS platform tailored for the Japanese real estate industry, and exploring the potential of Archify.
As an INFJ-T, I approach development with a "systems-thinking" mindset—balancing technical precision with a deep understanding of user needs. I particularly enjoy the challenge of architecting Vertical AI SaaS and optimizing Small Language Models (SLMs) to solve specific, real-world business problems. Whether I'm in a CTO-level leadership role or hands-on with the code, I thrive on building tools that turn complex data into actionable value.

Should I use ws:// or wss:// on Replit?
Use wss:// (secure) on production. Client auto-detects based on page protocol
How do I configure Spring WebSocket?
Implement WebSocketConfigurer, register endpoint with registerStompEndpoints()
