Over the past two months, I’ve been working on learning the Phoenix LiveView framework by building a complex multiplayer online game. In this post, I’ll talk a bit about the benefits of this framework, and give a quick overview of the game architecture and processes I’ve developed.
Recently, I’ve begun tackling a few projects in Rust, an open-source programming language designed to maximize software reliability and efficiency. Rust is used by a lot of big names — including Mozilla, Cloudflare, Dropbox, AWS, Google, MS, and Yelp — and was the #1 “most loved language” in StackOverflow’s 2018 Developer Survey.
In this post, I’ll share a bit of my experience using Rust; I’ll also talk through the language’s benefits and recommended applications.
