Example how to use orelans in containerized setup

What does this project?

The project simulates in a very simple way the movement of asteroids around a gravity pool. A asteroid is represented as grain in the orleans cluster. The asteriods are distributed across the orleans cluster. If two asteroids are crossing paths, the asteroid with the smaller weight is destroyed and cannot move anymore. The state information about the asteroids are visible on a status dashboard (default page) and updated in realtime via signalR.
