Demonstrate easy enhancement of existing ExpressJS site

express-js has a very nice API if you just need a little extra real-time magic. It is clearly quite popular.

With the new application task approach it should be possible to remove task definitions from the app.js

With gulp-socketstream the start could be overridden and socketstream be embedded

Perhaps

var socketstream = require('socketstream/gulp');

var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var socketstream = require('socketstream/express')(app);

app.socketstream('...', function(req, stream) {
});

Takes over the listen call to do it via the socket server

Make screen cast showing how to add SocketStream to a MEAN demo app

Interesting.

The basic support for express is already on develop. I will need some input/ideas on what API to expose on the Express App.
