In this video, we're building a real-time multiplayer 64x64 pixel grid application! I’m using a powerful, modern stack: TanStack Start, Cloudflare Durable Objects, and Drizzle ORM, all tied together with the Cursor AI code editor.
TEMPLATE:
RESULT:
Watch as I use Cursor's agentic coding features to generate the core logic, explain the math behind converting a 1D Uint8Array into a 2D grid, and manage state using WebSockets.
I kept the hiccups and debugging in this video to give you a realistic look at what building and deploying apps actually looks like. We'll troubleshoot SQLite errors locally and fix Wrangler deployment issues live.
