Thanks for this explaination, I just want to know what vim plugin you use to show that tooltip at 15:56. I beleive its ri documentation.

I'm actually using a suite of Vim plugins called Janus and I'm not sure what plugin it is that does that. It's definitely one of them listed here. Also I'm using MacVim which probably helps to provide that functionality. http://github.com/carlhuda/...

Great screencast!! Can we use rabbitmq or zeromq in rails to develop this kind of chat app as alternative to Redis PUBSUB?

Thanks a lot for this screencast! I used this example for adding Action Cable functionality to my app and it is work great!

But, not I want deploy it on production, where I use Nginx and SSL. Could you help me, how I can update my Nginx that it will properly work with wss ?

What about a simple twitch clone as an example :)

Chris Oliver 204,930 XP September 28, 2015 11:34pm

That would be killer! This would be better for the chat portion of twitch, but the actual video streaming wouldn't be done using websockets.

krqe September 28, 2015 11:42pm

Video streaming part can be replaced with just adding a link of a person's stream service. Some people use twitch, some youtube.... They paste a link to their stream and it just works embedded through iframe :)
