• How I built a Multiplayer App in 3 days

  Just before I went to sleep last Sunday I thought it would be fun to create an app for my friends and I where we can rate the Eurovision Song Contest participants live together. The idea was to have everyones votes being tallied up live as we make adjustments to the ratings. This led me into looking at Replicache as the solution.
