As Saq mentioned, I am very close to a public beta of a real-time "live multiplayer" syncer build on top of TiddlyWeb/TiddlyWiki5 Server + Websockets + Yjs (Conflict Free Replicated Datatype library).
I took a lot of inspiration from Jed Carty's Bob Server setup, but so many of the internal changed during the Yjs integration that it has become its own thing. I need to get to a stable point in the refactoring to start sharing my progress. Aside: I also noticed that if you "Close" an open draft tiddler with the `X` button, that it deletes the draft from the wiki, and this really disturbs drafts from other users that are being edited live.... note to self to file a bug report on that.
