Collaborative-uml-editor

Description

This project is a collaborative UML Class model editor that allows multiple users to work on the same UML diagram at the same time.

This editor supports a specific modelling session where users can create a class model together by creating subtask for a specific modelling problem. For each subtask the users can start an individual modelling session and create a class model for the subtask. The class models for the subtasks are then merged into a single class model for the whole modelling problem.
