Task 20: Code Together, Shine Together! 💻✨

🎯 Objective:
Enable a shared coding space where collaborators can code together in real time.

💡 Steps to Implement:

1️⃣ Shared Coding Environment:

• Use a collaborative coding platform like CodeMirror or Monaco Editor.
• Integrate it into the app using flutter_webview_plugin or native components.
• Sync real-time changes using Firebase Firestore or WebSocket.

2️⃣ Collaborative Features:

• Code Editor: Highlight syntax and support for multiple languages.
• Chat: Add a messaging feature for discussions using Firebase Realtime Database.
• Task Progress: Use a Kanban board for task tracking (flutter_board package).

3️⃣ Syncing Code in Real-Time:

• Firestore Example:
  • Save live changes to a Firestore document:

    FirebaseFirestore.instance.collection('sharedCode').doc('sessionId').update({
      'code': newCode,
    });

  • Stream code updates to the editor:

    StreamBuilder(
      stream: FirebaseFirestore.instance.collection('sharedCode').doc('sessionId').snapshots(),
      builder: (context, snapshot) {
        if (!snapshot.hasData) return CircularProgressIndicator();
        return TextField(
          controller: TextEditingController(text: snapshot.data['code']),
          onChanged: (newCode) {
            FirebaseFirestore.instance.collection('sharedCode').doc('sessionId').update({'code': newCode});
          },
        );
      },
    );

4️⃣ Adding Collaborators to the Session:

• Display a modal or side menu to invite people to the coding session.
• Use Firebase Firestore to track active participants.

5️⃣ Additional Features:

• Notifications for code updates or task completion.
• Version control via Git API integration.

💡 Outcome:
Users can code together, communicate, and track progress—all within the app!

THIS IS A CONTINUATION OF TASK 19.

BUT IT'S COMPETITIVE SO, YOU CAN JUST BUILD IT IN A NEW SCREEN.
