+The `Http` that accepts `WebSocketChannelEvent` isn't enough to create a websocket connection. There are some other settings
 that one might need to configure in a websocket connection, things such as `handshakeTimeout` or `subProtocol` etc. For
 those purposes a Http of the type `Http[R, E, WebSocketChannelEvent, Unit]` needs to converted into a `SocketApp` using
 the `toSocketApp` method first, before it can be sent as a response. Consider the following example where we set a few
