Padre::Plugin::Swarm - Experimental plugin for collaborative editing

This is Swarm!

Swarm is a Padre plugin for experimenting with remote inspection, peer programming and collaborative editing functionality.

Within this plugin all rules are suspended. No security, no efficiency, no scalability, no standards compliance, remote code execution, everything is allowed. The only goal is things that work, and things that look shiny in a demo :)

Lessons learned here will be applied to more practical plugins later.

Global server transport

Local network multicast transport.

User chat - converse with other padre editors

Resources - browse and open files from other users' editor

Remote execution! Run arbitary code in other users' editor
