2 projects | /r/golang | 27 Apr 2021

I suggest PubSub with queue persistence, so https://github.com/eclipse/paho.mqtt.golang with https://mosquitto.org/ as broker. Mosquitto also supports websockets interface and can be run over TLS.

Open-source game server for fast-paced games
3 projects | /r/gamedev | 24 Mar 2021
