Comment on Show HN: Click the button, a global realtime leaderboard clicker game

Comments

I made this as a silly learning project to dive into some of the real-time interestingness of Elixir.

It's using Phoenix LiveView, and the whole game state lives inside a GenServer

Realtime state is written to ETS and periodically (every 5s) flushed to disk.

It's running on fly.io
