Hosted App: https://bplace.app

Features

• Real-time Pixel Placement: Users can place pixels on a shared canvas, and changes are updated in real-time for all users.
• User Authentication: Login screen allows users to enter a username to join the board.
• Color Picker: Choose from a variety of colors to place on the board.
• Collaborative Drawing: Multiple users can draw on the board simultaneously, with pixel changes reflecting immediately.
