The DoX Editor aims to be a web text editor application that allows users to create, edit, store and share several documents.
DoX is clearly inspired to well known online word processors such as Google Docs
This project spans from 22 November 2021 to 20 December 2021 (28 days).
Developed as part of the final group project for Software Atelier 3: The Web SA 2020-2021, part of BSc INF at USI Lugano.
