A web-based Collaborative Code Editor that allows multiple users to edit code together in real-time.

Collaborative Code Editor is a web application that enables developers to collaborate on code projects in real-time. It provides a shared code editing environment where multiple users can simultaneously make changes and see each other's updates in real-time.

The project consists of a client-side code editor, a WebSocket server for real-time communication, and a server-side document management system using ShareDB.

• Real-time collaboration: Multiple users can edit the same document simultaneously, and changes are synchronized in real-time.
• Syntax highlighting: The code editor supports syntax highlighting for popular programming languages.
• User-friendly interface: The code editor provides a user-friendly interface with features like line numbers, auto-indentation, and code completion.
