Real-Time Multiplayer with React-Together
Pixel Game leverages react-together from Multisynq to achieve unprecedented real-time synchronization across all connected players.
React Together makes it incredibly easy to add real-time collaborative features to your React applications. With just a few hooks, you can synchronize state across multiple users, create live cursors, build real-time chat, and much more.
Quick Example in Pixel Game:
import { useStateTogether } from 'react-together'
export function handlePaint() {
const [pixelUpdates, setPixelUpdates] = useStateTogether<
Record<string, string>
>("pixelUpdates", {});
return (
<button onClick={() => {
setPixelUpdates((prev) => ({ ...prev, ...updates }));
}}></button>
)
}
Installation
npm install react-together
Technical Benefits:
Instant synchronization of pixel placements across all connected clients
Conflict resolution for simultaneous pixel edits
State persistence with automatic reconnection handling
Scalable architecture supporting hundreds of concurrent users
