klevdb VS peerjs

The performance of https://github.com/klev-dev/klevdb is 10x https://github.com/maragudk/goqite so it makes me assume the durability is somewhat lacking. Can you speak to the tradeoffs here around message loss?

I would think that having a small chance of message loss due to writing to an append only log in batches might be a reasonable trade off for many things (if that is how it works).

I'm fascinated by the idea of Kafka and wanted to use it like a saas in my own apps, so I made my own take on it. It also doubles as a key/value store, so its useful for a bunch of things. The store itself is OSS and you can find it at https://github.com/klev-dev/klevdb.

this app is using peerjs to connect peers over a webrtc connection. check out thier docs for more info. with webrtc, things like file-transfer, should be very performant compared to cloud storage providers... especially over LAN. network speed doesnt seems to be an issue i have experienced.

I'm using the client-side PeerJS https://peerjs.com/ library for networking. As the name may imply, a direct connection is established between two peers using WebRTC via "handshake" through an intermediary server they host - and, they provide source for the server as well. I have found it to be quite reliable, thus far.

You kind of sound like a beginner. The browser APIs are a bit painful to work with. It might be easier to use PeerJS: https://peerjs.com/

If you want you can use Preact. PreactJS is a lightweight alternative to ReactJS, designed for high performance and compatibility. is often used in applications where performance is critical and has a small footprint.

This opens up a lot of neat possibilities, and fortunately I found a very easy JavaScript library for handling multiplayer called PeerJS. The way you can send packets from player to player is very simple and something even a beginner to JavaScript could understand.

You might be able to eliminate the VPS by making it P2P using something like PeerJS [1]. PeerJS provides a free shared connection broker server.

Note: peerjs is a good starting point!

We use peer.js module to create a WebRTC connection between clients

Now that we have all the required boilerplate we can start building the actual game. For the communications between peers we are going to use PeerJS a peer-to-peer library built on top of WebRTC.
