Read Leap data from guest VM on host machine using WebSockets

The JSONViewer doesn't use leap.js. It uses javascript to make the connection and just displays the messages received.

So in my application, I also can use JavaScript to make the connection to LeapMotion Websocket and displays the messages received from server, without leap.js library. Is that correct?

Cause I actually do the same with that JSONViewer.html, I only changed the websocket domain to ws://192.168.0.3:6437/v6.json, and the other computers can access to my domain application as well. If I change the domain into another IP address or localhost, another PC cannot access to my application domain anymore.

Quan.

Sure, but then you are left interpreting the JSON message on your own. The benefit of leap.js is that it provides an object-oriented interface to the data.
