From my understanding, that was OP's point. This project isn't a research project, this project is a one size fits all coding project that purports to solve problems that you need a research project on a single domain in order to solve. It is not conceivable that this project could solve the problem that a CRDT is meant to solve any more than you can parse HTML with regex. But in the readme is explicitly compares itself with CRDTs and a program that uses CRDTs to solve its problem.
The question OP is asking is, why is it comparing itself to CRDTs and Actual Budget? If Mycelite has special sauce, what is that special sauce? If it doesn't have special sauce, do they understand they're attempting to solve a problem which requires special sauce?
- fauigerzigerk 3y agoI read OP as implying that CRDTs solve the problem while they are questioning whether this project does. My response to that is to question whether CRDTs solve the problem in the general case (although they may well be helpful in a specific case).
- andrewmunsell 3y agoYou hit the nail on the head— I don’t mean to imply that CRDTs are perfect or useable for every use case, but they’re a way of handling sync conflicts. It is just unclear to me how this project does so, and if it doesn’t, then why it even references CRDTs in the first place
