synchronizing view with server #3

Open xtrntr opened 8 years ago

xtrntr commented 8 years ago

We had a few isolated cases where people were not able to save their niceties to the database for some reason. We can prevent this by having some kind of running connection (WebSockets) between the browser and server, and using a green/red glow around textboxes to indicate whether the current value in a textbox is the one saved in the database. This might be get problematic when comparing diffs (i.e. adding then deleting a diff), but even the most simplest synchronization would be very much helpful for a person to be confident in submitted niceties.

If this can be reproduced it should be separately reported
