This article demonstrates how to use a combination of Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) to send messages from any part of a system, either local, or remote, and then use SignalR and NancyFX to display the message in real time to a user (or yourself, doing the DevOps thing) in a browser. In addition to giving live insight into processes, the framework can also be used to facilitate central logging, and other general message processing.
