I thought tigerbeetle distributes the db on web clients? I skimmed through the docs and cannot find how to design a web app with tigerbeetle like the game https://sim.tigerbeetle.com/
Hey! I'm not completely sure I follow the question. But the game is built a little differently from how you'd typically run TigerBeetle in production. In production you'd run a cluster of replicas (see https://docs.tigerbeetle.com/deploy/hardware#cluster-of-repl...) and then you'd have your application connect to the cluster using one of our client libraries.
I have a very interactive app with limited data use <10MB. Right now its a lots of different API calls to sync state between server and multiple clients. But if I have a distributed sync protocol (that works), I can replicate the state on each cient and server by tunneling the sync protocol to the server and back. I have reduced a lots of api complexity. My react UI just subscribes to the data changes in the synced DB. Similar concept impelmented pouchdb & couchdb but its a bit outdated.
Nice! Looks pretty rad. I've never used Zig but it sure looks like an interesting language. Did NanoVG help with the animation stuff like the little text that pops out of the beetles and the lines that zip between them?
The game is more a reflection of how we do simulation testing (as the post mentioned). You can find the code for that here: https://github.com/tigerbeetledb/tigerbeetle/blob/main/src/s....
