## Description

Metacosm is an awesome microframework for building reactive systems.

## Goals

Enable quick prototyping of command-query separated architectures, and empower development of event-sourced systems.

## Background

One core concept is that we use commands to update "write-only" models, which trigger events that update "read-only" view models that are used by queries. 

Models only transform their state in response to commands, so their state can be reconstructed by replaying the stream of commands.

## Features

 - Distributed simulations using Redis 

## Examples

- [Game of Life](https://github.com/jweissman/gol), which implements Conway's game of life using metacosm and gosu
- [Socius](http://github.com/jweissman/socius), a civlike using the Redis integration to communicate with a game server running the sim

## Requirements

Ruby 2.2.1 or higher and Redis. Gosu dependencies are needed for the client.

## Install

    $ gem install metacosm
