I was interested in working with CRDTs and collaboration in general for a while now and this has been the biggest issue whenever I tried to get into it. Websockets also seem a bit harder to find (free) hosting for.

Btw, your other tutorials on CRDTs were also a great help.

Thank you!

As far as websocket hosting, there are a few services out there. We offer a pretty generous free tier for Y-Sweet [1] with 10GB of storage. There's also PartyKit and Liveblocks, though I'm not sure what their pricing is like.
