# Real-Time Collaboration

A project's canvas is a **live shared space**: when several members open it at the same time, each one sees the others working.

## What's synced live

- **Cursors** of teammates present on the canvas, identified by their name.
- **Actions**: creating or deleting a service, restarting, deploying. The event appears for all participants as it happens.
- **Canvas organization**: moving cards, links between services, folders.
- **Service status**: status badges (build in progress, online, crashed) are the same for everyone, live.

There's nothing to enable: open the same project as two people, and presence is automatic.

## Why it's useful

- **Pair debugging**: one reads the [logs](/docs/logs-monitoring) while the other redeploys: each sees what the other is doing, with no screen sharing.
- **Onboarding**: show a new member the project's architecture by moving the cards in front of them.
- **Coordination**: a deployment started by a colleague is visible instantly, which prevents accidental simultaneous double deployments.

## Permissions

Live presence respects [roles](/docs/roles-permissions): a **viewer** sees everything happen but can't trigger anything; organizing the canvas requires the **developer** role or higher.
