X-Plane's Elixir MMO with Tyler Young
Listen now
Description
Tyler Young from X-Plane talks with us about how he added a new MMO feature to the popular flight simulator using Elixir. He shares some behind the scenes information on how it was created and how it’s been working in production. We learn about the single modest server that supports all the mobile users right now. I loved hearing how Tyler found working with Elixir to be super productive. He took on a major new feature that he expected to take over a year but was able to deliver it in less than half the time. He did all the Elixir work himself and was new to it! Show Notes online - https://thinkingelixir.com/podcast-episodes/035-x-planes-elixir-mmo-with-tyler-young
