# Broadcast
|
|
|
|
Just a very simple implementation of a [broadcast program](https://roadmap.sh/projects/broadcast-server)
|
|
I made this program to learn about elixir, and its Actor model.
|
|
To be honest I think it's quite nice, even though a program like
|
|
this usually comes with quite a few unexpected difficulties Elixir
|
|
was able to handle it incredibly gracefully with basically no resistance.
|
|
|
|
From my first impressions I think Elixir is actually a quite capable
|
|
language for the purposes of server software - even if it doesn't have
|
|
the sheer computational speed offered by lower level languages.
|
|
|
|
As far as first impressions go for a programming language, I think that's
|
|
excellent.

## running/building
|
|
|
|
Install elixir and its build tool `mix` through your operating system's package
|
|
manager, then run `mix run`.
