## Sending messages from Unreal

*Documentation coming soon...*

## Receiving messages on webpage

Pixel stream messages from Unreal Engine will be transmitted utilizing the MessageChannel API. Parse the message string to facilitate data extraction. Each message will contain two properties: `type`, which is consistently set to `ps`, and `message`, encapsulating the data that has been received from Unreal Engine.

```typescript
function onMessage(event: Event) {
     const data = JSON.parse(event.data)
    // handle pixel streaming message
     if (data.type === 'ps') {
         const psMessage = data.message
     }
}
```
