[Solved] online collaborative code editing ide

Question

Actually, this should be somewhat simple. If one builds a synchronous editor, it should be event-based, isn’t it in your case?

So you should be able to do 2 things: detect an edit (and send it to others) and programmatically change the content of the edit area once you recieve a message (“another guy has edited”). And that’s not difficult to do:

to detect editing, use the change/changes events
to set changes, use content manipulation methods like setValue or replaceRange
