Genuinely happy for Sunil who built a great community and moved the space forward! Liveblocks also runs partly on Cloudflare Workers, it’s been great for stateful real-time servers.

Thanks for posting this! We announced Liveblocks 1.0 yesterday and a starter kit for Next.js to help develops kickstart their collaborative apps like Figma, Notion, and more. We think this can help developers save months of work. Please let

Hi Tim, I'm a bit biased but https://liveblocks.io is great for that :) If you know how to use React, that's pretty much all you need to know. It also includes some nice hooks to enable things like multiplayer undo&#x2

Awesome to hear from the Notion team who really gets this deeply. Slate definitely has its own limitations, especially when used on non desktop devices. Seems like ProseMirror would be a good open source alternative to Slate, what do you th

Thank you. I think you misunderstood me. By extra pluming I meant: extra pluming on the block-based text editor as it is. Supporting multiplayer collaboration at the character level is much more difficult and we’re very well aware of that :

Liveblocks does support multiplayer undo/redo. We even wrote an interactive blog post about it: https://liveblocks.io/blog/how-to-build-undo-redo-in-a-multi... Our open-source block-based text editor could support

True! I would also include https://liveblocks.io to that list of services that help developers make multiplayer experiences. Interesting to see more players in this space to help more and more developers do this.

We learned so much from Figma at Liveblocks. We spent the last 2 years rebuilding a lot of those core concepts as APIs any developers can use to make their own product multiplayer. If you're interested in more technical articles relate

Really impressive experience! Great work Next.js! Love the work 0xcaOa did with Three.js to create this multiplayer light effect. Glad to see https://liveblocks.io was able to help them prototype this out to get a feel for that

Exactly! With Liveblocks, you can also store anything presence related. You can for instance store a selectedId and use that on the other side to highlight the selected element.

Good point, it's also important to consider this in the context of the application that will use those multiplayer cursors. It's important that the state of the document matches the cursors, so it makes sense to have both presence

We support 20 simultaneous connections per room on the Pro plan. With the organization plan, we’ve been able to increase this to about 50 simultaneous connections per room depending on the use case. We would technically be able to go beyond
