 synopsis:       Secure WebSocket (WSS) clients
 description:    Wuss is a library that lets you easily create secure WebSocket clients over the WSS protocol. It is a small addition to <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/websockets the websockets package> and is adapted from existing solutions by <https://gist.github.com/jaspervdj/7198388 @jaspervdj>, <https://gist.github.com/mpickering/f1b7ba3190a4bb5884f3 @mpickering>, and <https://gist.github.com/elfenlaid/7b5c28065e67e4cf0767 @elfenlaid>.
