The server is written in Rust using the Axum web framework and a number of awesome tools (anyhow, dashmap, serde_json, tokio). The client-side is written in Svelte with Skeleton UI. Communicaton between the client-side and server-side is primarily handled through websockets with a central server that stores state in-memory, meaning that any latency is introduced by the network.
