Collaboration
Draftila supports real-time collaboration powered by CRDTs (Yjs). Multiple users can edit the same draft simultaneously.
Live Cursors
When others are editing the same draft, you see their cursors in real-time, labeled with their name and assigned a unique color. Up to 10 distinct colors are assigned automatically.
You can also see what tool each collaborator is currently using.

Selected shapes are highlighted for all users — you can see exactly what your teammates are working on.
