Developing a Collaborative Drawing App with Flutter and Directus #192
Comments
Thank you for submitting an idea for our guest blog. |
Thank you for submitting this idea, but unfortunately we are not accepting it as part of our guest author program. Right now we're focusing on JavaScript/TypeScript content. Please feel free to submit additional ideas in future. |
What is your idea?
The idea is to create a collaborative drawing application that allows multiple users to draw on a shared canvas in real-time. This app uses Flutter for a responsive and interactive user interface and Directus as the backend to manage user sessions, drawing data, and real-time synchronization.
Key Features
Detailed Breakdown
Real-time Collaboration
Use Directus WebSockets to ensure real-time updates. When one user draws on the canvas, the changes are immediately reflected on the canvases of all other users in the session.
User Authentication
Implement user authentication using Directus' built-in authentication mechanisms. Maybe also add support for OAuth providers for easy sign-in.
Session Management
Session Creation: Allow users to create new drawing sessions with unique IDs.
Joining Sessions: Enable users to join existing sessions by entering the session ID.
Session Persistence: Obviously, the session data needs to be stored in Directus.

What are the key takeaways from your post?
1. Understanding Real-time Collaboration:
2. Backend Management with Directus:
Even though this is all part of the documentation, I think it is especially interesting for people coming from Flutter, where Directus is not used a lot.
