Our CDOT team has been hard at work developing MakeDrive’s ability to sync filesystems between browser clients. Previously, we’d demo’d the ability to sync changes in one browser code editor up to a central MakeDrive server, called uni-directional syncing.
Now, we’d like to proudly present a screencast showing MakeDrive performing bi-directional syncs between two browser client sessions, in two different browsers.
A special thanks to:
- Gideon Thomas for his persistent work on the rsync code, allowing syncing filesystems over the web
- Yoav Gurevich for a reliable test suite on the HTTP routes involved in the syncing process
- Ali Al Dallal & David Humphrey for guidance, coaching and code wizardry throughout the process
