Entangle is a real-time collaboration tool for moments when people need to quickly share a working space without setting up a full project management or document platform.
The core flow is intentionally simple: create a room, share an invite code or link, and collaborate in the same text space while exchanging files through the session.
Architecture
- 1SvelteKit frontend for the room, invite, and collaboration interface
- 2TypeScript application code for typed interaction flows
- 3Supabase-backed realtime and room data layer
- 4Invite-based session model for lightweight sharing
Current app features
- Create a collaboration room
- Join through an invite code or invite link
- Edit shared text together in real time
- Share files inside a lightweight room workflow
- Generate pair codes for quick room handoff
Room-Based Collaboration
The product starts from rooms rather than accounts or workspaces. A user can create a room, get an invite, and bring another person into the same collaborative context with minimal setup.
- Room IDs are generated automatically.
- Invite codes and links make the join flow easy to pass around.
- The interface keeps the room action clear: create, join, or generate a pair code.
Realtime Text Editing
The shared text area is designed for fast collaboration where both sides can see updates as the session changes. The goal is not to replace a full document editor, but to make quick shared text work feel immediate.
- Useful for temporary notes, drafts, snippets, and handoffs.
- Keeps the collaboration surface focused instead of overloading it with document-management features.
- Makes the live room the primary unit of interaction.
File Sharing
File sharing is paired with the text room so collaborators can exchange supporting material in the same flow instead of switching tools.
- Designed for lightweight transfer during a shared session.
- Works naturally with invite-based collaboration.
- Keeps files and shared text close to the same collaboration context.
Implementation Notes
The public page identifies the stack as SvelteKit, TypeScript, and Supabase. That stack is a good fit for a compact collaborative app because the frontend can stay responsive while Supabase handles realtime coordination and persistence needs.
- SvelteKit keeps the app shell compact and fast.
- TypeScript helps keep room and invite flows predictable.
- Supabase supports the realtime behavior behind collaborative sessions.
