Its a paper trading platform but a multiplayer trading room setup. Its basically = Group Trading + Group Chat + (realtime mouse pointers lol).
I've always liked system design, so in one of my newsletters I found this Canva’s post about their real-time mouse pointer system (with all the bells and whistles of load balancers, scalable microservices etc). In the end, I basically created a scaled-down version with a pretty similar architecture.
PS: My job can get mundane sometimes. Wondering if projects like these actually help in getting more meaningful roles.
