RDT Example: Yjs

import * as Y from 'yjs'

const ydoc = new Y.Doc()

const webrtcProvider = new WebrtcProvider('room-name', ydoc, { password: 'optional-room-password' })
// const websocketProvider = new WebsocketProvider(url, 'room-name', ydoc)
// const matrixProvider = new MatrixProvider(ydoc, matrixClient, {type: "alias",alias: "matrix-room-alias"});

const ymap = ydoc.getMap('map')
const yarray = ydoc.getArray('array')
const ytext = ydoc.getText('text')
const yxml = ydoc.getXmlElement('el')

ymap.observe(event => {
  console.log(event.changes.keys) // { "my key": { action: 'add', oldValue: undefined } }
})

ymap.set('my key', 'new value')
