Code better, together
Working on code together in real time is valuable for knowledge sharing and producing quality software. The Teletype package for Atom aspires to make it as easy for developers to code together as it is for them to code alone.
Teletype introduces the concept of real-time "portals" for sharing workspaces. When a host opens a portal, their active tab becomes a shared workspace. There, invited collaborators can join in and make edits in real time. As the host moves between files, collaborators follow along with the active tab automatically.
How code gets shared
Each portal comes to life in two steps:
First you connect to our servers to see who is collaborating. 👋 Hi there.
After that, collaborators share code directly with each other (peer-to-peer).
There's no centralized server to spy on your keystrokes, and Teletype uses WebRTC to encrypt all communication between collaborators. What happens in the portal stays in the portal.
Getting started
1. Install Atom
Download and install Atom. It's free, open source, and cross-platform. You can use it on Windows, macOS, or Linux.
2. Install Teletype for Atom
Install the teletype package to start collaborating today. If you need help, take a look at how to install Atom packages.
Share a portal
Click the icon in the Atom status bar, and flip the switch to start sharing a portal to your workspace. Then invite people to join your portal by sending them your portal URL.
Join a portal
Once someone has provided you with a link to their portal, simply follow the link to join the portal. The portal opens and all collaborators can edit together in real time.
