About Actor Model

The Actor Model is a conceptual model for concurrent computation. Actors are independent entities that:

  • Communicate exclusively through asynchronous message passing
  • Process messages sequentially (no shared state)
  • Can create new actors dynamically
  • Are location-transparent and fault-tolerant

This playground demonstrates common actor patterns using Apache Pekko, the continuation of Akka under the Apache Software Foundation.
