#2Made because I couldn't find a simple, no-sign-up service to sync a list of names for a command line tool. And resubmitted because yesterday I goofed and the curl commands listed didn't point to the right location, which really took the fun out of it.
Favorite part of the project: trying out Phoenix's built in pub sub + live view (the live view subscribes to a data/:id topic, which the api write endpoint publishes to) to get that nice instant update on write if you have the data open in the browser without polling.
It's also fun to see how fast it syncs multiple browser windows watching the same data when you edit it in one window. That's not useful, but I give it 1 "neat".

That's pretty cool! Are you doing anything like rate-limiting to prevent abuse?

Yeah I'm not sure why it's doing that, v annoying though

#6Manually editing data has a bug. If you click cancel it will still update the value.

Thanks 8), rate limiting is just the most basic of nginx configs to like, 10 requests / second / ip

#8Whoever made this, I love you. I do a lot of prototyping in Framer, and this just make simple prototypes that communicate with one another hell of a lot easier!

#10Very cool. Are you using just cowboy as a server or do you have nginx/Apache in front?
