Haven't looked into the code/docs deeply, yet, but would love to know if it can be customized to send data to one's own backend service for private implementations. Love the editor. Also had a few great laughs trying to use it alongside so many other people.
- mikelehen 14y agoWe built it as a Firebase app, but we're releasing it as open source and are looking forward to seeing what the community does with it. :-) All of the OT work happens client-side, so it's certainly possible to adapt it to other backends. Additionally, a lot of the OT code is based on ot.js[1], a fantastic open source OT implementation by Tim Baumann. He has a node.js backend as well as Haskell and Python. Of course then you have to run the server code somewhere and figure out how to persist the documents, etc. :-) Definitely worth checking out though. 1. https://github.com/Operational-Transformation/ot.js/ https://github.com/Operational-Transformation/ot.js/
- mccolin 14y agoThis is fantastic. Looked up some more information about your Firebase offerings and like what's going on there, too :-) Keep up the great work!
