Wewatch allows multiple people to watch youtube clips together. Scroll, pause and play is synchronized between all connected clients.

Features:

• Synchronized youtube player
• Playlist editor: Search and add clips easily
• Bookmarks: Set 'bookmarks' in clips
• Chat

A production server is running at: http://wewatch.me

The source code is distributed under the MIT license.

The project is written in Coffee-Script (iced dialect) and uses Socket.io, Backbone.js and Skull.io libraries, among others.

This project requires iced coffee-script:

npm install -g iced-coffee-script

Mongodb is used as database, make sure it's installed and running. Configure the db in server/config.coffee (default is mongodb://localhost/wewatch)

build Contains the compiled javascript files as well as the script to stitch and minify them

client Contains the client-side coffee script source code. Compiles to build/js

server The server source code

www Jade templates, vendor javascripts and the stylesheets

git clone git@github.com:codeboost/Wewatch.git
npm install -g iced-coffee-script
npm install
iced server

To start a 'debug' server, run:

iced server debug

To compile the client sources to a minified javascript file:

cd build
iced compilejs

You can edit the listen host/port and db parameters in server/config.coffee

This was done in my spare time and is mostly experimental. Good luck.
