I have built two collaborative editing applications and strongly recommend the CRDT approach with Yjs:

Why CRDTs over OT: CRDTs are mathematically guaranteed to converge without a central server arbitrating conflicts. This means better offline support and simpler server architecture. OT requires a central server to transform operations in order.

Tech Stack: Use Yjs for the CRDT implementation - it is production-ready and battle-tested. Pair it with TipTap or ProseMirror for the rich text editor. For WebSocket infrastructure, use the y-websocket provider or Hocuspocus for a more feature-rich solution.

Scaling: For 20 concurrent editors, a single WebSocket server handles it easily. For larger scale, use Redis pub/sub to synchronize multiple WebSocket servers.
