Playing around with Elm and live code updates by building a game.
The rough idea is to build a spaceship game where you can move around within a star system.
See the Elm game code.
Status: Basic multiplayer works. Try it at https://starsystemgame.herokuapp.com/.
mix deps.get
cd web/elm
source paths.env
elm package install -y
cd ../..
mix phoenix.server
Then visit http://localhost:4000, edit web/elm/Game.elm and see the changes.
If you play the game (currently not much of a game, but A and D will rotate the ship and W will accelerate), you can edit the code and see the changes applied without the game resetting.
