Let's select the feature of "Real-time Collaborative Document Editing" from Probo's app.

This
feature allows multiple users to edit documents simultaneously, seeing each other's changes in
real time.

Implementation Plan
1. Programming Languages and Frameworks

Frontend:
● JavaScript (TypeScript): Provides type safety and helps in preventing bugs during
development.
● React: Efficiently updates and renders components for interactive user interfaces.
● WebSockets (Socket.io): Enables real-time communication between the client and server.

Backend:
● Node.js (with Express.js): Suitable for handling WebSockets and real-time data exchange.
Express.js simplifies the creation of REST APIs.
● WebSockets (Socket.io): Facilitates real-time, bidirectional communication between the
server and clients.

Database:
● MongoDB: A flexible NoSQL database for storing documents and their versions.
● Redis: An in-memory data structure store used for real-time data storage and
synchronization due to its speed.
2. High-Level Architecture and Low-Level Design

High-Level Architecture:

Client-Server Model:
● Clients: Interact with the server through REST APIs for standard CRUD operations and
WebSockets for real-time updates.
● Server: Manages document states, user sessions, and broadcasts changes to connected
clients.

Components:
Frontend (React App):
● Handles the user interface and interactions.
● Manages local document state and uses WebSockets for real-time communication with
the backend.
Backend (Node.js/Express Server):
● Manages user authentication, document storage, and synchronization.
● Uses WebSockets to push real-time updates to clients.
Database Layer:
● MongoDB: Stores documents, user data, and document history.
● Redis: Manages real-time data, such as active document sessions and user connections.

Low-Level Design:

1. Client-Side:

Document Editor Component:


● Utilizes a text editor library for handling document content.
● Connects to the WebSocket server when a document is opened.
● Listens for real-time updates from the server and updates the document accordingly.
● Sends user edits to the server in real-time via WebSocket.

2. Server-Side:
WebSocket Management:
● Manages WebSocket connections and message broadcasting using Socket.io.
● Handles events like joining a document, receiving document changes from clients, and
broadcasting these changes to other connected clients.
Database Operations:
● Saves document changes to MongoDB, maintaining a history of changes.
● Uses Redis to manage active document sessions and synchronize real-time data
efficiently.

3. Database Schema:
● MongoDB: Stores document metadata, content, and version history, allowing retrieval
and update operations for documents.

3. Third-Party APIs or Services


● Auth0: For managing user authentication and authorization. It simplifies integration and
provides robust security features.
● AWS S3: For storing static assets like images or large document attachments, offering
scalability and reliability.
● Redis Cloud: A managed Redis service that handles real-time data synchronization
efficiently, reducing the complexity of managing Redis instances manually.
