Use case:
- A stranger and I want to collaborate on a document
- We both use VS Code (and Dendron!)
- Need ability for asynchronous edits (no VS Code Live stuff) because of different schedules/timezones/etc.
Is the only current method to spin up a GitHub/GitLab/etc repo and manage all that overhead?

01/28/2022, 6:13 PMIf you're both using VS Code itself and not a re-packaging of it (e.g. Code - OSS or VSCodium) you could give Live Share a shot. In that scenario one of you hosts a sharing session and the other can have read/write access as a collaborator

01/28/2022, 9:07 PMThanks @User . I think you're right. We have the requirement to perform async edits, so Live Share is a no-go.
Just talking out loud here...
- Wouldn't it be cool, if user A (me) could package a Markdown file in the form of a "link" to user B (my collaborator) that contained the Markdown text content in the link itself?
- (minus any images)
- When user B clicks the URL, VS Code with Dendron opens the file; User can add/edit Markdown.
- When complete, user B "packages" the document in a URL and shares with user A, etc, etc
Check the link below (truncated, exceeds Discord msg length). The link itself has all the the entire .dot Graph contained!
