Hi all, I created a web app (ADnD style mini game) recently to demonstrate how to use serverless WebSockets (Ably) and combine it with Azure Functions to send realtime updates to the client (based on VueJS and hosted on Azure Static Web Apps). The Azure Functions use Durable Entities (part of Durable Functions) to store a centralized game state, and as soon as the state is updated the clients are notified of this change. Full blog post is here, the game can be played here, and you can have look at the code on GitHub.
