So, one thing I really like about this is there's no UI clutter - just an editor and a footer. That would make this sort of thing great for embedding into another app. Another thing I like is you can create a new document simply by navigating to a random URL. Again, great for embedding (where the containing app can just name files after a UUID or whatever).
The down side is I typed some stuff, then clicked reload and my text was a bit scrambled. So I'm going to say your operational transform implementation is a bit buggy :)
:) Yes there are a few kinks. Especially if you type quickly and do mult-line replace operations. It also sometimes doesn't register newlines accurately. All this might have to do with the way my code talks to the editor.
Thank you for your appreciation! And I hadn't yet thought about embedding. Technically it actually could be a bit tricky to embed because you can't really mix websocket- with vanilla HTTP servers yet.
