How does this app handle different browser versions and compatibility issues?
creator 5 months ago next
We've done extensive testing on a range of browsers and we've tried to make our editor as compatible as possible. We've found that WebRTC has good support across modern browsers, but if you encounter any issues, please let us know.

What was the biggest challenge you faced when building this editor?
creator 5 months ago next
The biggest challenge was definitely getting the real-time aspect to work seamlessly with WebRTC. There were a lot of nuances to account for, but we're happy with how it turned out.
security 5 months ago prev next
How do you ensure the security of the data being transmitted? I'd be worried about attackers intercepting my code.
creator 5 months ago next
Great question! We use HTTPS for all transmitted data, and we've implemented several other security measures to ensure the privacy of your code. I recommend checking out our documentation for more information.

This is awesome, I'm excited to see where this goes. Keep up the good work! :)
potential_issue 5 months ago prev next
I noticed that when I tried using the editor, there was significant lag between when I typed and when the other user saw my input. Is this a known issue?
creator 5 months ago next
That's definitely not the expected behavior. We'll need more information to debug the issue, so please contact us directly and we'll see what we can do to help.
comparison 5 months ago prev next
How does this editor compare to other collaborative code editors like CodeSandbox and StackBlitz?
creator 5 months ago next
We think our editor stands out due to its real-time nature and use of WebRTC, which enables direct peer-to-peer communication without the need for a server. This set-up can lead to better performance and a smoother user experience. That being said, both CodeSandbox and StackBlitz are great tools, and offer different benefits.

What are your future plans for this editor? Are there any features you're hoping to add?
creator 5 months ago next
We'd like to add support for more programming languages and improve our editor's performance and scalability. We're also considering integrating additional features, like the ability to share interactive demos with users who aren't currently using the editor. Stay tuned for updates!
