Collaborative software at Common Curriculum / CMU

I write about CRDTs etc: https://mattweidner.com/
Together with my last blog post (mattweidner.com/2024/06/04/s...), this should let you build central-server collaborative apps with *no* tricky CRDT or OT algorithms! (Though CRDT ideas are still helpful.)

I'd be interested to see those if you can find them.
I do wonder to what extent rebasing SNAFUs can be "solved" with cleverer mutations, or if you need to fall back on branches / version control for any amount of offline editing.

I heard about Jupyter's prototype collaboration using Yjs back in 2021 - neat that they are still making progress with it!
