Set up

Pre-requisites

  • Have Node.js version 6 or greater installed

Install

> git clone https://github.com/ipfs-labs/shared-editing-demo.git
> cd shared-editing-demo
> npm install

Run

Open in browser

Using a modern browser that supports WebRTC, like a recent version of Chrome or Firefox, open several windows of http://localhost:12345.

Known issues

This Demo uses WebRTC to establish the connections between nodes. WebRTC is a CPU intensive protocol and not all Browsers will behave correctly, depending on their implementation of WebRTC or the resources available on the machine that they are running. This is a known issue and something the js-ipfs team is looking at alternatives to solve.
