One of the hardest things for developers to get right is real-time functionality. It looks amazing once it works but the setup is trickier than most expect and scaling makes it even harder. In this video I show you a solution that is easier to implement infinitely scalable and runs on the edge. It’s called Durable Objects. We’ll explore different ways to build real-time apps compare why Durable Objects are the best option and then create a real-time chat app in about 10 minutes using PartyKit an open source framework built on top of Durable Objects. 📸 Screen Recording Software: 🔒 My favorite Auth Solution: 👨‍💻 GitHub Repo: 🌍 My Website: 👋🏻 Discord: ✅ Follow me on X: 📧 Business ONLY: jan@ Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 01:12 Simple Setup (Not Scalable) 04:08 Advanced Setup (Very Scalable but Complicated) 09:00 The Solution (Durable Objects) 10:00 What Are Durable Objects? 17:00 Real-Time with Durable Objects 20:00 Creating a Simple Real-Time Chat Application
