I’m interested in having a desktop application send messages to a web app. Specifically, the desktop app, written in Java, needs to send messages to a Javascript function that will be running in a browser. The messages only need to be sent one way. Also, both programs will be running on the same local machine. I can set up a local development server if necessary.
I’m new to networking and web development and I have no idea how to approach this problem. Can anyone offer any suggestions?
I think the appropriate way to do that (if not the only way) would be to go through a server both apps talks to
