How do you do WebSocket connections when you're doing SSR?
Typically, you don't do websockets. There are some great products out there that give you the same capabilities. I recently started working with Pusher for my Remix applications and am loving it!

Is a Multiplayer Game Possible with NextJS + Vercel?
According to Vercel's website SocketIO is NOT supported, however Pusher Channels is recommended in it's place. Not sure what it is, but it supposedly is supported by vercel and potentially can help.

7 Useful JavaScript Libraries To Build a Real-Time Web App
Pusher is a hosted service that makes it super-easy to add real-time data and functionality to web and mobile applications. It sits as a real-time layer between your servers and your clients. Pusher maintains persistent connections to the clients — over WebSocket if possible and falling back to HTTP-based connectivity — so that as soon as your servers have new data that they want to push to the clients they can do, instantly via Pusher.

Need help implementing google maps
Then watchPosition from @react-native-community/geolocation is definitely the way to go. Here's a link to the example in their repo. This will constantly update the position state variable, which you can then send to a realtime service which other users are subscribed to and consuming. (Depending on your implementation, could be a websocket or some pub/sub service... I've worked with Pusher Channels before for something similar.)

Best way to add chatting into my web app?
An easy way to start with is to use external Pusher channels service It requires 0 devops and everything works very well, for free at least at the beginning. However, like any external service, it can't scale without paying. "Pay as you grow".

Centrifugo – scalable real-time messaging server. Handles WebSocket, EventSource, GRPC, HTTP-streaming and SockJS connections, manages channel subscriptions. Provides API to publish messages into channels. Integrates well with any stack.
Centrifugo is very similar to pusher.com Channels product (https://pusher.com/channels) – but self-hosted. Also – somewhat similar to socket.io - but not a library, so can work with any backend. Centrifugo is pretty unique in terms of available features sum – so can't say that there is a direct analogue I've heard about - sth from one product, sth from another, sth unique. And of course there are alternatives which can do what Centrifugo can't since the market of real-time servers is quite big.

Edit This Blog Post
Absolutely! The real complexity comes from conflict resolution. If someone edits the top, and someone else edits the bottom, which version do you go with? What if they're editing the same area? Entire companies exist to provide elegant solutions to this[0], so it's no simple task.

How would I adjust this gradient animation?
For the following example, I want the gradient color to flow from "Hello World" to the "Circle", so they are synchros and match the colors. I created this snippet but I'm having trouble with the rest. https://play.tailwindcss.com/accHTivCcx. Another example would be the https://liveblocks.io/'s title, which flows through the colors in the gradient. How would I achieve this?

CRDTs make multiplayer text editing part of Zed's DNA
Very cool use case for CRDTs! I've seen a bunch of different use cases from other products like https://liveblocks.io/ and https://electric-sql.com/. It's interesting how CRDTs are now taking hold so much for all these collaborative syncing scenarios. Wonder what's driving the proliferation now given they've been around for awhile?

Ask HN: Building a multiplayer, offline-capable app in 2022 (like Figma, Linear)
Hi Tim,
I'm a bit biased but https://liveblocks.io is great for that :)
If you know how to use React, that's pretty much all you need to know. It also includes some nice hooks to enable things like multiplayer undo/redo and live cursors.
The team even put a couple of interactive blog posts about that that you might find interesting:
