CoColors is a real-time collaborative drawing tool. People across the web can instantly create a canvas and fill it with color - together!
Every canvas has a unique 8-character id. Just go to the
homepage to make a new one - or, if your friend already made one, just get the link!
Once inside, just hold down the mouse and move around to draw. You can change the crayon color and thickness using the tools across the top.
Every continuous path you draw is stored separately - that means you can use the erase tool to wipe out entire paths, rather than individual pixels.
Or, start from scratch - use the reset tool on the right to wipe the slate clean!
CoColors uses the HTML
<canvas> element to display everything you draw, and tracks your mouse movement to add paths into that canvas.
The app is powered by nodeJS and the
websockets package, which communicates between your browser and the app's server in real-time using
new WebSocket.
