HTML Living Standard[1] by the WHATWG. The media type
for SSE is text/event-stream.

History

The SSE mechanism was first specified by Ian Hickson as part of the "WHATWG Web Applications 1.0" proposal starting in 2004.[3] In September 2006, the Opera web browser implemented the experimental technology in a feature called "Server-Sent Events".[4][5]
