Naucto is a two-year EPITECH end-of-studies project built by a team of six. It aims to be an online creative platform where users can build games directly from the website, collaborate with friends in real time, publish their games, play other users' creations, and interact through a community hub.

Multiplayer, even in the editor

I built the real-time collaboration core: WebRTC mesh + Yjs CRDTs so friends edit the same game at once — shared cursors, conflict-free, peer-to-peer.
