Alfresco Collabora Online

This project contains 3 sub-projects :

• collabora-platform-extension : extension for Alfresco Content Services
• collabora-share-extension : extension for Share interface
• collabora-aca-extension : extension for Angular interface, Alfresco Content Application

The extension adds an action Edit with Collabora™ Online on documents which can be opened with Collabora Online and if the user has the write permission. The document will be opened in an iFrame.

Many users can open the same document at the same time.

The version 0.1-SNAPSHOT is still in beta. It should not be used in production.
