Show HN: Matrix-CRDT – real-time collaborative apps using Matrix as backend
Hi HN! Matrix-CRDT connects the worlds of Yjs [1] (a proven, high performance CRDT) with that of Matrix.org [2].<p>It started as an experiment, asking myself; can we store "state updates of a datastore" in Matrix instead of chat messages? Now, I'm convinced it's actually a really powerful combination to develop real-time, collaborative software.<p>I'm using it for a new project and so far didn't have to write a backend yet. Matrix takes care of a lot of stuff: Authentication, E2EE, federation, hosting, etc. - so I can focus on the client.<p>I love the ideas of Local First [3] software. Personally, I'm convinced the technologies in this ecosystem (CRDTs, etc) are really powerful and can do more to decentralize software than many web3 technologies that currently receive much of the hype.<p>However, it's still early days, so I decided to open source parts that I think will be useful to others (I recently also shared SyncedStore [4])<p>[1] https://github.com/yjs/yjs<p>[2] https://www.matrix.org<p>[3] https://www.inkandswitch.com/local-first/<p>[4] https://www.syncedstore.org
