Real-time Presence
GlossaryBy OpenCharts TeamPublished
Real-time presence is the multiplayer layer that shows live cursors, online avatars, and node selection locks while teammates collaborate on a project.
In depth
Powered by Liveblocks, presence syncs cursors and viewport state, prevents two people from editing the same node simultaneously, and shows the “who’s here” avatar stack. Comments use Liveblocks Threads for node-attached discussions.
