This is just a dump of some interesting undocumented features of webOS (3.8 specifically, on early 2018 4k LG TV) and other development-related tips.

Homebrew app ideas

• OpenVPN frontend (OpenVPN itself is easily buildable and runs on webOS TVs: https://discord.com/channels/407937994037919756/835489130967859251/906943542457401395)
• App autostart manager - dynamically update arbitrary app config and register it as input (see Registering an app as an input)
• webos-vncserver frontend with autostart option
• Package hyperiond into Piccap directly
• Quick Screenshot (expose HTTP port that just returns PNG of current screen contents)
• Custom IR remote codes editor/updater/blaster

// sending to sender-client only
socket.emit('message', "this is a test");

// sending to all clients, include sender
io.emit('message', "this is a test");

// sending to all clients except sender
socket.broadcast.emit('message', "this is a test");

// sending to all clients in 'game' room(channel) except sender
