Your question is too broad, or shows some misconceptions about desktop applications and web applications.

Be sure to understand (in details) HTTP and reason in terms of HTTP requests and responses (including those initiating a websocket connection). Remember that a websocket is above some HTTP connection.... Understand the role of HTTP cookies .

You could change your desktop application into a web application (perhaps running on http://localhost/ ...), but that requires some significant work and redesign. You probably then want to use some HTTP server library, like Wt or libonion (it supports Websockets ).

Perhaps you might improve your web application to make AJAX requests (eg to some http://localhost:34567 ...) to you local application transformed into a specialized web sever running locally (and also using websockets, if you need that).

Perhaps you want your Desktop application to also become an HTTP client. You then need some HTTP client library (like libcurl or QtNetwork ).
