It’s a client-server architecture with a bit of CRDT inspired algorithm sprinkle on for offline mode. The name of the game remains consensus and CRDTs convoluted approach is there to server a niche in the spectrum of distributed consensus. It is slower, more complex, and less transparent. I wouldn’t really use it outside of long lived and erratic P2P nodes — CRDTs solve that problem and that is what they are really designed for: partition prone, long lived, distributed, peer to peer, collaborative global state changes.
