yjs VS Nullboard

One idea is just to use fewer random bits in peerIDs. Yjs (https://docs.yjs.dev/) gets away with just 32 random bits. If you compromise and use 64 random bits, then even a very popular doc with 1 million lifetime peerIDs will have a < 10^-7 lifetime probability of collision.

I've seen it come up often in collaborative text editors.

You are absolutely right that XML is better for document structures.

My current theory is that Yjs [0] is the new JSON+XML. It gives you both JSON and XML types in one nested structure, all with conflict free merging via incremental updates.

Also, you note the issue with XML and overlapping inline markup. Yjs has an answer for that with its text type, you can apply attributes (for styling or anything else) via arbatary ranges. They can overlap.

Obviously I'm being a little hypabolic suggesting it will replace JSON, the beauty of JSON is is simplicity, but for many systems building on Yjs or similar CRDT based serialisation systems is the future.

CCP needs to revamp proto anyway, due to recent exploits... practically, nothing really prevents 'em from using some sort of CRDT's to make the state of the sig view eventually consistent (yjs lib, if we're speaking frontendian).

Yjs framework: Because it is a CRDT implementation which provides collaborative editing and offline-first capability.

No problem. The database CRUD features are just helpers as an abstraction on top of yjs: https://docs.yjs.dev/. Eweser adds schemas in the form of typescript types to make using it simpler, more structured, and interoperability easier.

Hello, HN! I'd like to introduce you to nbagent[0], an open-source alternative backup agent for Nullboard[1] for Unix systems. If you, like me, are a fan of Nullboard's simplicity and you've been looking for an easy way to have your data backed up, check it out.

I'd love to hear your feedback on nbagent. Please feel free to leave comments, suggestions, or questions below.

Surprisingly no one has mentioned nullboard (https://nullboard.io/preview) yet. Just a single file JSON to carry around the entire board.

Nullboard maybe?

minimalist kanban board, without fancy tagging/time tracking/... features. Every game has a column, and notes are player names. nullboard would be perfect if it wasn't local only;

Nullboard - cool simple project, no bug tracking

Nullboard - Kanban board with dark mode, localStorage, and thoughtful UI

I use and like https://nullboard.io/preview nullboard which runs in the browser. Because it uses local data, you need to save it or the data is lost when you close the browser window.
