Abstract: The present invention relates to a real-time collaborative code editing system configured to enable multiple users to create, modify, and review source code within a shared development environment. The system comprises a user authentication module, a session management module, an application programming interface gateway, a code synchronization engine, a bidirectional communication module, an access control module, and a version history database. The system establishes collaborative coding sessions between authenticated users and synchronizes source code modifications across connected client devices. The code synchronization engine processes concurrent editing operations and applies conflict resolution mechanisms to maintain consistency of shared source code. The bidirectional communication module facilitates real-time transmission of code changes, cursor positions, and user presence information through persistent communication connections. The access control module manages user roles, project permissions, and session access, while the version history database stores code revisions and supports retrieval and restoration of previous versions. The system may further support integration with code repositories, code review tools, and project management services. The invention provides a unified mechanism for synchronized collaborative code editing, session coordination, access management, and version tracking in distributed software development environments.
