Open-source Notion clone collaborative text editor by Liveblocks
liveblocks.ioHi HN
Steven here, co-founder at Liveblocks. Happy to answer any question you may have!
In the meantime... Interested in building a multiplayer note-based app? We've built the foundations to make your project a reality. Add multiple types of blocks, and see them shared in real-time.
Along with text elements, we've got a number of more complex blocks & embeds that are ready to go:
◆ To-do list ◆ Image ◆ YouTube ◆ CodeSandbox ◆ Figma
Our collaborative block text editor is powered by Slate—adding a new block is as simple as creating a new Slate Custom Element. We've written the code to automatically sync Slate's state to Liveblocks.
Hope this helps, and can't wait to see what people create with this :)
Hi, thanks for posting this! Looks really cool. I recently worked on a multiplayer editor application using WebSockets and it was really fun but definitely very challenging. Many edge cases and scenarios that weren't considered at first had to be covered.
