JSON data structure as a CRDT
Conflict-Free Replicated Data Types (CRDTs) are specialized data structures that enable the merging of changes in two or more data replicas without conflicts. Despite their immense potential, CRDTs remain a relatively new area of research and development, and much can be improved in existing open source CRDT libraries. The objective of the json-joy project is to implement a full JSON CRDT library that reflects the current state of the art, while simultaneously ensuring optimal performance through the use of custom-designed data structures and the latest advancements in Replicated Growable Array (RGA) literature. In addition, the project aims to establish specifications for critical components of the library, including the data types employed, serialization protocols, and patch format protocols, thereby facilitating the portability of the open source code to other programming languages and promoting educational initiatives.
