NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

Adopt
We feel strongly that the industry should be adopting these items. We use them when appropriate on our projects.
Conflict-free replicated data type (CRDT) algorithms are proven to be able to automatically distribute and merge changes among peers without conflicts. But in practice, even for small enough data, these algorithms usually require a significant amount of memory to trace all the changes made by different peers, thus making them impractical. Yjs is a carefully optimized CRDT implementation that keeps memory consumption at a reasonable level for large data sets and millions of modifications. It also provides bindings for popular text editors, which greatly reduce the cost of building collaborative tools.
