colyseus VS Previous Serverless Version 0.5.x

If you don't want to dive deep into backend then https://colyseus.io/ might also be an option.

Since you already know Javascript you could try to use some existing server framework at first to avoid having to do everything from scratch. https://github.com/colyseus/colyseus

Try this Node.js based server framework https://github.com/colyseus/colyseus

https://colyseus.io/ (Authoritative server, that works with many engines JavaScript/Phaser/Unity/Haxe/Defold)

If you want web based you'll likely use Javascript for frontend/client. Check if this JS game server framework has what you need https://github.com/colyseus/colyseus

Also check Colyseus. Bit similar multiplayer server framework and built on top of Node.js/TypeScript. https://github.com/colyseus/colyseus

The above project uses a Node.js authoritative game state called Colyseus (https://github.com/colyseus/colyseus) which handles the state synchronisation between clients and server.

We use Colyseus for this. Pretty easy and open source too. https://colyseus.io/

i deployed a lambda and http api gateway using a serverless.com (sls) template as a start. I get the following error when it processes a specific request:

Have you tried serverless.com ? It lets you have infrastructure as code.

- With Lambda, you manage creating and building the container yourself, as well as updating the Lambda function code. There are tools out there such as sst or serverless.com which help streamline this.

If you'd like to use Lambda, usually you need to engineer FOR it, from day one, you don't (often) get to choose some other framework and shoehorn it into Lambda and Serverless. There's some great frameworks to help deploy code into Lambda easily and create REST endpoints for things, one such frameworks is serverless.com that helps easily deploy to it, but it lacks a framework for doing REST that also supports local emulation (as easily). For that, I recommend a framework by AWS called Chalice. This is an amazing REST framework that runs a proxy that works locally and deploys exactly the same on Lambda, it is Python however.

I use serverless.com for AWS stuff.

After knocking out a README with a set of goals and a list of TODOs to check off as I made progress, I spent about 10 hours over a weekend trying to get something to work. I used serverless for making Lambda easier, Github Actions for the deploy pipeline and store my credentials; and sadly I rolled my own access_token refresh logic because I couldn't find a helper that just did that for me! wtf!?

Does everyone who uses Workers just use wrangler cli and the cloudflare console UI for everything or is anyone using other tools like serverless framework (https://serverless.com) instead? Looks like they added some support for cloudflare but haven't tried it yet.
