Collaborative TextArea is a basic example that creates a SharedString and uses the react CollaborativeTextArea component to launch a basic collaborative HTML <textarea>

Getting Started

You can run this example using the following steps:

1. Run npm install and npm run build:fast -- --nolint from the FluidFramework root directory.
   • For an even faster build, you can add the package name to the build command, like this: npm run build:fast -- --nolint @fluid-example/collaborative-textarea
2. In a separate terminal, start a Tinylicious server by following the instructions in Tinylicious.
3. Run npm run start from this directory (examples/apps/collaborative-textarea) and open http://localhost:8080 in a web browser to see the app running.

Testing

    npm run test:jest

For in browser testing update ./jest-puppeteer.config.js to:

  launch: {

    slowMo: 500,
    headless: false,
  },
