• Multi-player Mode is Everywhere, Even in Dev Tools

  Of course, you don’t have to code this functionality from scratch! You can also look at open-source software like Yjs, text-crdt, Automerge and so many more. Alternatively, you can check out tools like Liveblocks, Ably, etc. Which enable collaborative multi-player features. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• Show HN: JuntOS – A shared Pomodoro and focus tools

  I've built this app some time ago but only shared with close friends. It has been useful for me so I decided to share here. It works by sharing state with yjs [1], as long as you are in the same session, i.e. The same path. https://github.com/yjs/yjs. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Oops.js

  I write undo/redo/history in web/JS extensively. This the best lib out there for such tasks IMHO: https://github.com/yjs/yjs And you're right. You don't want undo/redo only in multi-user apps. You want to have each user have their own local undo/redo events that they can apply and unapply from the shared state which has its own events apart from each user. Everyone... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Oops.js

  After reviewing the ~600 lines of code, I have to ask what about this undo/redo manager is "advanced"? This seems like a naive implementation of a snapshot collection that is selected via array index. It's not event sourcing, OT or CRDT. With every event, the entire object is serialized and put into the heap. I can't even imagine what this does for performance when you deal with any object of significant size.... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• An Interactive Intro to CRDTs

  I've seen it come up often in collaborative text editors. Also see: https://github.com/yjs/yjs. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Stop Syncing Everything

  > I'm thinking to give it a try in one of my React Native apps that face very uncertain connectivity. Some similar stuff you may want to investigate (no real opinion, just sharing since I've investigated this space a bit): - https://rxdb.info. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Show HN: Triplit – Open-source syncing database that runs on server and client

  Looks like it could be a more batteries-included/opinionated alternative to RxDB (https://rxdb.info). The relational queries might help some people who tend to think in SQL as opposed to documents (as in CouchDB or MongoDB) and the WebSockets for synchronization will help people get started more quickly. (RxDB provides interfaces for those who want to implement their own storage engine and/or synchronization... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• HackNote

  Some years ago "offline-first" was a thing: https://web.archive.org/web/20170720174332/http://hood.ie/initiatives/#offline-first Primarily based on PouchDB/CouchDB. Now the site redirects to RxDB. https://rxdb.info/ There's still a site by that name but I don't quite understand what's the intention https://offlinefirst.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: How Can I Make My Front End React to Database Changes in Real-Time?

  I'm interested in this problem also! I think there is a large overlap with projects that market/focus on offline-first experiences. AFAIK this problem can be solved by: 1) Considering a client-side copy of the database that gets synced with the remote DB. This is an approach [PowerSync](https://www.powersync.com/) and [ElectricSql](https://electric-sql.com/) and [rxdb](https://rxdb.info/) take! - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• You can't leak users' data if you don't hold it

  Hey, after I posted that, I went and gave a second look online to see if I could find something that would allow me to develop a local-first app with offline persistence and syncing capabilities. I ended up finding some possibilities out there that could potentially help me build stuff. One of them is RxDB [1], which offers WebRTC syncing - you'd still need a signaling server, I suppose, but all sensitive... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
