This was built as an experimental project, to test the waters for building collaborative systems. Here we've used off-the-shelf tools like quilljs and Yjs to build a collaborative editor.
- Clone the repo
- Install the dependencies using
npm i - Run the server using
npm start - In another shell, run the front-end using
npm run fe:serve - Open your favorite browser and go to localhost:8080
To test out collaboration, open the page in a different tab or browser, or you could just access it via other devices on your LAN.
