Show HN: Real-time Collaboration Made Easy

7 pointsby jameshsiover 11 years ago
Dynajot (<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.dynajot.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.dynajot.com</a>) aims to be an extremely low friction way to create real-time collaborative applications. With a single javascript include, the library syncs DOM nodes for multiple users across browsers.<p>You can view the code on Github here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;rabidsnail&#x2F;dynajot-sync">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;rabidsnail&#x2F;dynajot-sync</a>

Very cool.<p>So you sync the DOM right? Wouldn&#x27;t it make more sense to sync at the &quot;model&quot; level? I&#x27;m assuming most applications are generated from some model as follows:<p><pre><code> model --render()--&gt; DOM </code></pre> in that case syncing the DOMs would not sync the models of the two applications.

Pretty cool. But why would I use this over Etherpad?
