+## Description
+
+This EP proposes having the current [websockets/ws](https://github.com/websockets/ws) userland implementation in core.
+Efforts have already been made on nodejs/node#4842. It is understood that
+adaptions to style and simplicity need to be done in order to conform with
+`node` core.
+
+## Motivation
+
+> `websockets` are a foot-in-the-door feature for companies, which have **not**
+decided to make a commitment towards `node` to use `node` anyways. For a wider
+adoption of the language this is a critical point.
+
+The above statement is the observation of the author.
+
+However in order to gain momentum as a language, the experience should be as
+performant, secure and well documented as possible. Userland development is to
+be believed not holding enough capacity to meet those requirements. Especially
+issues like `Buffer(number)`, however dangerous they are, can only be
+effectively secured via backporting code through the language's LTS.
