  • Alternative Actor Implementation for Android

    Actor implementation (much simplified) intended for use on mobile devices. Seems to provide better memory usage behavior than native F# Mailbox Processors (MPB) (on Android). Though is not as 'smooth' as native F# MBP. Smoothness here refers to how processing is balanced between consumers and producers (most relevant to single core machines).

  • Event stream projection with actors

    An example of using an actor (MailboxProcessor) to coordinate the projection of events from an event stream into a persisted projection. This example covers handling simple concurrency conflicts via also persisting and checking the latest event ID with with projection. The update command will take the current projection and apply all new events before persisting it back. The rebuild command will ignore an existing projection and replay all events in the stream.
