Slipstream provides a number of example socket client implementations as both a tutorial-like guide and a reference for common implementation patterns.

Each of these examples is tested (via mix test), so each example is assured to be in working order by every green check-mark from the CI.

Each example is contained in a directory in ./examples. Each example contains a README.md with:

  • a description of the example and what it tries to solve
  • a tutorial-like listing of commits that created the example, along with explanations of each step

In order to use the examples as a tutorial, try reading through each commit and reproducing the client in an example project.
