Remote Collab

Remote Collab is a free, open-source SublimeText plugin for real-time collaboration on a shared project. One developer hosts a session from the file being edited, while a colleague connects in SublimeText through “Remote: Connect to Session” and enters the host’s IP address. The host therefore needs to share that address with collaborators. Installation is available through Sublime Package Control or manually from a ZIP or TAR.GZ archive. The plugin lists Linux, macOS, and Windows as platforms and is made for SublimeText. Its GitHub repository lists an MIT license. TeamRemote maintains the project and identifies four members who are students at Allegheny College. The listed Remote Collab plan costs nothing. The plugin provides collaboration within the editor rather than requiring users to move to another development environment.

Remote Collab offers a focused collaboration feature for SublimeText users. Its free, open-source model is straightforward, while the host-based connection requires sharing an IP address.

Remote Collab suits developers who use SublimeText and need several people to work on one project in real time. It also fits users seeking an open-source, no-cost plugin.
