About Teletype for Atom
Teletype for Atom lets developers share their workspace with team members and collaborate on code in real time. Working on code together in real time is valuable for knowledge sharing and producing quality software. The Teletype package for Atom aspires to make it as easy for developers to code together as it is for them to code alone. Teletype introduces the concept of real-time "portals" for sharing workspaces. When a host opens a portal, their active tab becomes a shared workspace. There, invited collaborators can join in and make edits in real time. As the host moves between files, collaborators follow along with the active tab automatically. There's no centralized server to spy on your keystrokes, and Teletype uses WebRTC to encrypt all communication between collaborators. What happens in the portal stays in the portal.
