Collaborate live over the internet with Amy Editor

Just a quick update on Amy Editor progress.

In order to test collaboration in Amy Editor, simply launch editor in one browser, open a document (eg. application.js), and optionally make some changes.

Now go to the top menu and choose “File -> Collaboration -> Invite…“. Remember the number that popped up.

Launch another browser window (or tab, but then you won’t be able to see the results so effectively :-), open the editor, go to the menu “File -> Collaboration -> Accept…” and enter the number.

After a while, new document will be launched in the new editor tab and you can start “collaborating” ;-). You are encouraged to test it with others, it’s much more fun than looking at two browser windows all alone :-).

What you want to use it for is up to you… Please just note, this is a concept code, with anything but pure collaboration feature included, there’s much more to come.
