I wish someone should offer a "firebase for OT" SAAS that offers an API, SDKs for JS/iOS/Android and a few working samples.
Every time I want a collaborative OT like environment for apps that I build, I end up:
1- implementing some sort of janky locking scheme, or
2- having to learn how to install and host a tightly coupled server and client environment, or
3 - Abusing some other service (like firebase or couchdb) that has pseudo-OT semantics and getting close enough
I know there a bunch of people working on this, but I've never seen it offered as a service. If one of you do, please add my to your list of potential beta testers.
- jinjin2 10y agoRealm is pretty close (it is not offered as-a-service, but they have a free version you can run yourself).
- marknadal 10y agogun is also pretty close, http://gun.js.org/ http://gun.js.org/ , especially if you watch / read the video series on how the CRDT algorithm and security work in arbitrary P2P environments. The base system lets you build other CRDTs on top, check out this talk I did in Berlin for details: http://gun.js.org/distributed/matters.html http://gun.js.org/distributed/matters.html .
- mochidusk 10y agoI'm on the same boat but I doubt something like this will be offered. I could be wrong, but there isn't enough of a demand/market to justify it.
