The year is 2020 and our containerized civilization is falling apart. A cruel and villainous DevOps demon named Boylur Plait has descended from the cloud to Earth to challenge mankind to a tournament.

To win this tournament, Assembly Mechs must compete in an absurdly over-dramatized contest. These mechs will challenge their creator's ability to write code that will outlast and defeat everything that the demon and its nearly infinite hordes pit against us. Humanity's only hope is to master a technology called WebAssembly, win the tournament, and prove to the cloud nemesis that this world is well protected.

In this game, players will create Assembly Mechs to compete for supremacy in the WasmDome. Developers create a new mech by building a Rust waSCC actor, signing their module, and uploading it to the WasmDome.

Will your mech survive? Is your code good enough to stand against the most vicious enemies the cloud can muster? Upload your mech to the WasmDome and find out, watching it participate in match after match as it collaborates with other mechs to fight for humanity's survival. Will your efforts be enough to save the world? Not likely, but it'll be fun trying!

To start your Phoenix server:

• Install dependencies with mix deps.get
• Install Node.js dependencies with cd assets && npm install
• Make sure your postgres database has the latest schema via mix ecto.migrate, configured via the following env vars:
  • DB_HOST
  • DB_NAME
  • DB_USER
  • DB_PASS
• If you want to add your own stuff to the database, open up a second terminal and iex -S mix then issue Elixir commands like Repo.insert
• Ensure that you have a NATS server running, preferably in "leaf node" mode on 127.0.0.1 with anonymous access
• Configure your auth0 API information with the following environment variables (auth0 has a free tier that you can use for experimenting):
  • AUTH0_DOMAIN
  • AUTH0_CLIENT_ID
  • AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET
• Start Phoenix endpoint with mix phx.server

Now you can visit localhost:4000 from your browser.
