About:
Teamtype is a peer-to-peer collaborative editing tool that enables real-time synchronization of local text files across multiple machines without requiring a central server. It operates directly on the filesystem, allowing developers to use their preferred editors and tools while maintaining shared state. The tool establishes secure connections between participants, ensuring that changes are propagated instantly and conflicts are handled gracefully.

Key Features:

Serverless peer-to-peer architecture
Editor-agnostic workflow
End-to-end encryption
Filesystem-native operation
Automatic conflict resolution

Use Cases:

Pair programming sessions using individual local editors
Collaborative configuration file editing
Real-time document co-authoring in terminal environments

Alternatives:

Floobits – Floobits is a plugin-based collaborative editor that requires a centralized service, whereas Teamtype is fully peer-to-peer and serverless.
Syncthing – Syncthing synchronizes files but lacks real-time collaborative editing features; Teamtype focuses on live editing with conflict resolution.
