Description

Provides R bindings to the 'Automerge' Conflict-free Replicated Data Type ('CRDT') library. 'Automerge' enables automatic merging of concurrent changes without conflicts, making it ideal for distributed systems, collaborative applications, and offline-first architectures. The approach of local-first software was proposed in Kleppmann, M., Wiggins, A., van Hardenberg, P., McGranaghan, M. (2019) <doi:10.1145/3359591.3359737>. This package supports all 'Automerge' data types (maps, lists, text, counters) and provides both low-level and high-level synchronization protocols for seamless interoperability with 'JavaScript' and other 'Automerge' implementations.
