I bet you can make a small, beautiful implementation of this algorithm in most languages. Most algorithms - even ones that take generations of researchers to figure out - end up tiny in practice if you put the work in to understand them properly and program them in a beautiful way. Transformers are the same. Genius idea. But a very small amount of code to implement. This is an implementation of FugueMax (Weidner and Kleppmann) done using a bunch of tricks from Yjs (Jahns). There’s generations of ideas here, by lots of incredibly smart people. And it turns out you can code the whole thing up in 250 lines of readable typescript. Again with no dependencies. https://github.com/josephg/crdt-from-scratch/blob/master/crdt.ts https://github.com/josephg/crdt-from-scratch/blob/master/crd...
