Does anyone know if there is an easy way to enable collaborative editing of a form in the browser?
Say two people open the same page/form. Now they should be able to see which form field the other person is currently editing and for text form fields a text CRDT should be used.
I tried to implement something like this with Yjs but unfortunately it was quite hard and didn't work well.
- jakelazaroff 3y agoWhy didn’t Yjs work? It seems like it would be perfect for that.

- sureglymop 3y agoAs someone new to it, I found it hard because the docs were incomplete. The "usual" use case of collaborative text editing with a pre-made text editor was well documented. For example here you can see a lot of "todo" in the docs: https://docs.yjs.dev/tutorials/creating-a-custom-provider https://docs.yjs.dev/tutorials/creating-a-custom-provider
