The Derby MVC framework makes it easy to write realtime, collaborative applications that run in both Node.js and browsers.
A simple chat demo. Note that as you edit your name, it updates in realtime. Name changes also show up in the page title and other rooms. Check out the source in the examples directory to see how these bindings are created automatically.

The requisite MVC demo, but collaborative and realtime! Todo items are contenteditable fields with support for bold and italics.
A kitchen-sink style example with a bunch of random features. Largely used for testing.
Hello world example.
Warning: Master of this repo is now based on Derby 0.6. 0.6 is sufficiently complete and being used in production, but the documentation has not been updated from 0.5.16. Expect updated docs soon.
Install these examples from the 0.5 branch for use with Derby 0.5.
To run these examples on your own machine, first install Node.js. The Node installer will also install npm. You'll also need MongoDB and Redis 2.6 installed and running.
Then, clone this repo from GitHub.
You can run each of the examples from their own directories:
$ cd ~/derby-examples/directory
$ node server.js
The examples written in CoffeeScript are meant to be run via the coffee command:
$ npm install -g coffee-script
$ cd ~/derby-examples/sink
$ coffee server.coffee
