Best Practices

whether you're building a new app or integrating ditto's offline first , peer to peer sync capabilities into an existing solution, this guide provides everything you need to design, develop, and optimize applications with real time collaboration and seamless offline support introduction to ditto ditto is designed to help you sync data in real time across devices , even in low connectivity environments with p2p mesh networking and an offline first architecture , ditto ensures that your app remains functional and responsive , no matter the network conditions to get the most out of ditto, it's important to follow best practices for data modeling , sync logic , security and performance optimization this guide walks you through each of these important areas to ensure that your ditto implementation is efficient, scalable, and secure key concepts here are a few key concepts that are fundamental to building with ditto offline first architecture designing apps that can operate offline and synchronize seamlessly when network connectivity is restored peer to peer sync ditto's unique ability to sync data directly between devices without the need for a central server data modeling for sync structuring your data in a way that optimizes performance, minimizes conflicts, and ensure consistency across devices getting started in 3 simple steps install the sdk select your platform from the docid 6cgdbs7y5u2loh4lewfzz and follow the steps to set up the sdk initialize ditto in your app after installation, you'll need to initialize the ditto sdk and set up your app to begin syncing data follow the https //docs ditto live/v4 5/basics/authentication and initialization#e6xuu for details on how to get up and running sync your data with ditto integrated, you can now https //docs ditto live/sync/syncing data across devices follow the https //docs ditto live/crud/create to learn how to create, read, update, and delete data in your app explore the best practices 1\ planning and architecture design planning your app's architecture with an offline first and p2p sync approach is crucial for ensuring smooth operations, even with unreliable connectivity this section covers best practices for designing your system's data flow, sync logic, and architecture patterns learn more about how to design with ditto's docid\ fxqyjly3kru foi0iwno0 2\ setup and sdk configuration integrating ditto into your app involves configuring the sdk for your specific platform this section provides step by step guides for setting up ditto on mobile, web, iot , and server along with platform specific optimizations getting started with sdk setup and docid\ qrkdv9vcykux2djgwamxb 3\ data modeling and sync logic properly structuring your data model ensures efficient and reliable sync across devices this section explores best practices for data modeling , handling large datasets , and managing real time sync using ditto master docid\ xpqrh1wzsldbvmerfb3sh with ditto 4\ security, access control, and privacy securing data in a peer to peer environment is critical this section covers best practices for role based access control (rbac), data encryption, and ensuring compliance with privacy regulations discover docid\ kl6f8qzuqjgvyw bo000v your ditto powered application 5\ testing and optimization testing your ditto implementation for real world conditions ensures your app performs as expected in various situations this section focuses on simulating different network conditions, optimizing sync performance, and testing latency and subscription management docid\ gyzuy5hkihxbmguzwobtl your ditto implementation for real world scenarios 6\ deployment this section provides best practices for deploying your app with ditto integrated, including preparing for production environments on ios, android and web learn how to manage dev/staging/prod environments and ensure a smooth deployment process get docid 9mezo0qgpqmftpaggykzx for your ditto enabled app 7\ performance optimization and troubleshooting after launch, ensuring that your ditto integration runs efficiently across devices is essential this section provides tips for performance tuning , handling large datasets , managing mesh connections , and troubleshooting common sync issues learn how to docid\ il fdzb8ajfbp1e0jh0mg issues in ditto 8\ monitoring and maintenance long term success depends on monitoring the health of your ditto based system and managing updates/ this section covers monitoring tools , handling version upgrades , and ensuring backward compatibility stay on top of docid\ s59tlzonw26gishlu5qki your ditto system
