In this video we build collaborative text editor using Monaco editor, WebRTC, and Yjs. With this surprisingly small stack we are able to create collaborative environments in an easy to understand and efficient way. Users are connected in a peer to peer fashion, which means that you can have any number of people editing code at a certain time. This video is great for beginners, intermediates, or even professional React developers looking for an introduction to WebRTC. This video is also a great introduction to Yjs, a shared editing framework that powers a majority of this application.
