The plugin is built on top of Y.js which has CodeMirror integration out of the box, so the code is very simple especially for such a complicated feature.
Now, this is only a prototype and lacks many functions. I expect that implementing collaboration properly might require changes in Joplin core as well.
Plus it's not obvious to me how to handle attachments and note links.
This was more of a prototype so I did not write a very detailed explanation but basically this plugin allows 2 Joplin users together edit a single note. On my video it's 2 copies of Joplin side by side but it can just as well be 2 different computers.
Now, this is not a complete solution, and I probably won't do any more work on this. In part because there's a similar GSoC project but mainly because I do not need this function.
Thank for the info
Is the prototype available anywhere?
I might have the need for at least read only access to my notes, but without using my dropbox credentials, so this one looked promising but I couldn't dig up anything more than this post...
