This is the first time I've ever seen this usage.

It would be helpful if instead of snark, you responded with an actual explanation.

Especially since a quick search of "real time javascript framework" doesn't return one. The most relevant result suggests that a chat application or dashboard is "real time". When it's really just two-way communication (sockets et all).

In this context, it doesn't appear to mean anything at all AFAICT (aside from marketing) as any framework with some minimal helpers supporting sockets could use the label. Or not... since despite your response, it's possible I've misunderstood since it's not actually a "web development community" bit of language AFAICT. Having been a member over a decade.

It irks me too, but the term has been adopted in recent months, I think, by the javascript community. It is usually used to mean something akin to reactive.
