Overview of Orbit#
The Orbit API is an open source toolkit for building real-time synchronization
and communication applications in the browser. It allows developers to easily
and efficiently build user experiences that are multi-user, real-time, and
fully secure. With the Orbit API, you can easily create applications that are
multi-user and real-time, with no servers needed. Here are some examples of
applications that you can build with the Orbit API:
- Multiplayer Games - Create real-time gaming experiences with multiple players
interacting in the same environment. - Collaboration Apps - Create multi-user applications where multiple people can
share data, edit documents, and collaborate in the same environment. - Chat - Create an application where multiple people can chat in real-time.
- Real-Time Dashboards - Connect multiple users to the same data source, and
display information in real-time on a dashboard. - Trading Platforms - Create advanced real-time trading platforms where users
can view pricing information in real-time and respond with trades. - Tracking Apps - Create applications for tracking objects and viewing them in
real-time. - Virtual Reality - Create a virtual reality experience with users interacting
in the same environment.
