💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with aird

Your task is to develop a collaborative code editing platform using the Python package 'aird'. This platform will allow multiple users to simultaneously edit and view Python scripts in real-time, making it perfect for coding workshops, hackathons, or remote team collaborations. Here are the steps and features you need to implement:

1. **Setup**: Install the 'aird' package and set up a basic web server that serves as the base for your collaborative code editor.
2. **User Interface**: Design a simple yet intuitive user interface where users can log in or create an account. Ensure that each user has their own workspace.
3. **Real-Time Collaboration**: Utilize 'aird's real-time capabilities to enable multiple users to edit the same Python script simultaneously. Implement features such as highlighting changes made by different users and showing who made which change.
4. **File Management**: Integrate file browsing and management features within 'aird', allowing users to upload, download, and delete files from their workspaces.
5. **Code Editor**: Embed a code editor within your application that supports syntax highlighting for Python. Users should be able to save their edited scripts back to their workspaces.
6. **Notifications**: Add a notification system that alerts users when someone else starts editing a file they're working on.
7. **Security Measures**: Implement basic security measures like user authentication and authorization to protect user data.
8. **Testing**: Thoroughly test the application to ensure that all features work seamlessly and that there are no security vulnerabilities.
9. **Documentation**: Provide clear documentation on how to use the application, including setup instructions and a user guide.

By following these steps, you'll create a fully functional, collaborative code editing platform that leverages the real-time and file management capabilities of the 'aird' package.
