What are the possibilities of using Websockets in a Trellis setup? How about Node.js/socket.io on the side?
One of my upcoming tasks is to create a simple online game, and the focus is on security (cheating). So I thought maybe it’s best to run the whole logic server side, because I have experience in simple online games and it’s that they’re always cracked if control is left on the client side, no matter what.
I don’t mean this to sound dismissive or anything, but you can do basically anything with Trellis. You just need to customize it to your needs.
Trellis is just Ansible playbooks, roles, tasks, etc. There exists a lot of pre-done Ansible roles for Node.js to help you out as well.
This isn’t something we’d ever do by default in Trellis since it’s not related to WP.
