Thank you! I'm from the team, I'll try to answer your question.
One tablet creates the drawing group, and other tablets join that group. The host centralizes the data submitted by participants (guests), and it redistributes it to all other.
So it's "star" because one manages the data, and it's "peer-to-peer" because it uses an Apple Wi-Fi extension that enables direct NxM networking of devices (no Wi-Fi access point needed). Also works with Apple TV.
- archagon 8y agoHey! I'm not the person you're responding to, but since you're here anyway, I have a quick question. I found your article by Googling "MultipeerConnectivity" and "CRDT", to see if anyone had put the two technologies together. I was wondering: why did you decide to eschew MultipeerConnectivity in favor of your custom solution? What was missing from that framework? Also, what's the Wi-Fi extension that you used to implement your tech? Haven't heard anything about this, would be very interested in investigating further!
