Module processes are registered with names within their respective supervisors, usually using a uuid. Currently, String.to_atom is frequently used with GenServer.call and GenServer.cast to turn a string representation of a struct's id (often concatenated to a prefix representing the parent supervisor) into the appropriate process name.

As part of this refactor, consolidate GenServer logic into a __using__ macro which can handle both string and atom representations of an id.

Disconnecting doesn't remove entities, which causes a crash when trying to broadcast to (closed) TCP connections associated with these entities.

Implement shared pools for the server to publish to and clients to subscribe to, eliminating the need to roll a new class every time namespaced packets are sent. Perhaps JSON could be used to represent these.

Most classes in the client are base classes. Inheritance can be used to bring more structure to the client and keep things DRY.

Luarocks is a bad solution to resolving Lua 5.1 dependencies. A simpler way is to clone dependencies using Git (and, in the case of luasocket, compile in deps.sh).

Running the installer does not install the typescript compiler along with npm. Moonscript.js is then not compiled and thus not available in browser (returns 404). fswatch requirement is also missing.

Allow account creation from a web interface served by the Elixir server.
