The goal was to try and build a product that can help software developers bring more collaboration into their learning process.

One month ago I did a deep dive into building real-time sessions with firebase, and since then CodePusher has gone through a tonne of churn. But I am happy to say that we are now feature complete for our first MVP! This post will give a high level overview of a few core features and the tech that was used to build it. As with any MVP, the goal was to always fail fast and avoid any pre-optimisations.
