Building Multiplayer Tetris from scratch with OTP, Elixir, and Phoenix by Merlin Webster | Code BEAM

✨This talk was recorded at Code BEAM Europe 2023. If you're curious about our upcoming event, check codebeameurope... ✨
Abstract:
Let’s play Tetris together!
In this talk we’ll play a live game of Tetris battles together, and then have a look at how it works under the hood. We’ll take a tour through the code and show how a multi-participant browser based game or tool can be built using only Elixir and Phoenix LiveView.
The goal of this talk is to teach you something about how OTP processes and supervision works, and show some patterns for creating large interactive experiences using Phoenix.
We’ll use my game Tetrex (github.com/mjf...) as a case study, and I’ll aim to share some insights learned on my journey from Elixir newbie to video game copyright infringer.
