Great project! I've been looking for something like this for a long time. Can't wait to see how it develops.

I'm curious about the technology stack you used for this. Real-time collaboration is no easy feat.

Thanks for the kind words! I used websockets to handle the real-time aspect, and for versioning, I implemented a simple version control system.

Could you provide more details about how you implemented the real-time collaboration part? I'm working on a similar project and would love to learn from your experience.

Sure thing! In short, I used a combination of websockets, server-side rendering, and client-side updates to keep the UI in sync.

That's a smart approach, thanks for the explanation. I'll try to implement something similar in my project.

I completely agree, this is an impressive project. How did you handle versioning in a real-time environment?

A version control system sounds like a great idea. Have you considered releasing it as a standalone library?

I'll take a look at the code, thanks. I'll also consider using it in my project if it seems robust enough.
