Play Game

Overview

The frontend is a React web application. The app talks to the backend Express server via the WebSockets protocol, falling back to the HTTPS protocol if the socket connection fails. The game state is stored in a cloud Redis database.

Deployments

Deployments are mostly automated, with the exception of the socket server which needs to be manually restarted as of when this documentation was written.
