Offline and sync

Collaboration in Wodo is built on a simple promise: your edits are never lost, and never conflict.

Live by default

When you and a colleague work in the same space, you see each other's changes as they happen — cards move, text appears, labels change. There's no save button and no refresh; the state on your screen is the state.

Offline without ceremony

Lose the connection — a train, a flight, a bad café — and you can keep working. Your edits queue locally. When the connection returns, they merge with whatever happened while you were away.

Merging is not "last write wins" roulette: Wodo's data model (CRDTs, for the curious) is built so that concurrent edits combine cleanly. Two people editing the same description offline both keep their words. No conflict dialogs, no "your copy / their copy".

The sync indicator

The navbar always tells you the honest state:

  • Saved — connected, everything synced.
  • Saving… — changes on their way.
  • Reconnecting… — connection lost with unsaved changes; Wodo is retrying, and tells you so prominently rather than letting you close the tab unaware.
  • Offline — disconnected, nothing pending.
  • Unsaved changes — disconnected with local edits waiting.

That last distinction is the one that matters: you always know whether closing your laptop right now would leave anything behind.

Going further
  • An optional offline storage setting in your account keeps space content cached on the device, so spaces open instantly and work fully even when you start offline.
