Monaco Editor
Setup
JavaScript
install
import * as Y from 'yjs'
import { WebrtcProvider } from 'y-webrtc'
import { MonacoBinding } from 'y-monaco'
​
const ydoc = new Y.Doc()
const provider = new WebrtcProvider('monaco', ydoc)
const type = ydoc.getText('monaco')
​
// There are some steps missing to initialize the editor
// The editor requires a webpack build-step
// See the complete example:
//   https://github.com/yjs/yjs-demos/blob/master/monaco/monaco.js
const editor = monaco.editor.create(
  document.getElementById('monaco-editor'),
  {
    value: '',
    language: 'javascript',
    theme: 'vs-dark'
  }
)
const monacoBinding = new MonacoBinding(
  type,
  editor.getModel(),
  new Set([editor]),
  provider.awareness
)
​
npm i monaco-editor yjs y-monaco
Live Demo
Unfortunately, we can't show a live-code example on this website because the editor requires a build-step that online-IDEs don't support. Maybe you can give it a try? Anyway, we still have a live demo available on a different website (simply open it in two different tabs).
