Lioctad (li[bre] octad) is a free online octad game server focused on

[realtime](https://lioctad.org/games) gameplay and ease of use.

Lioctad is written in Go 1.19 using Go Fiber and React 17 with Redux. Go

templates are used for templating. Pure octad logic is contained in the

[octad](https://github.com/dechristopher/octad) library. The server is fully

asynchronous, making heavy use of Go routines. WebSocket connections are handled

by a separate server that communicates using Redis PubSub. Lioctad talks to

an octad engine that uses Minimax with alpha-beta pruning for games against

computers. It uses PostgreSQL to store games, which are indexed by Elasticsearch.

HTTP requests and WebSocket connections can be proxied by Nginx. The frontend is

written in TypeScript, using Sass to generate CSS. All rated games are published

in a free PGN [database](https://lioctad.org/db).
