Gladly! Automerge on its own is just a library that makes local-first data structures possible.
Ethersync uses this library for a concrete purpose: Collaborating on local text files. We wrote editor plugins and a daemon that runs on your computer, to enable you to type in plaintext files/source code together, from the editors you already know.

Much appreciate seeing the huge wave of new local-first libraries/tools !
Maybe someone can explain how this compares to other solutions like y.js or automerge ?

Hope that clears things up a bit.
