Apple's Shifting Differentiation

The point about robust collaborative editing as an API is interesting. The HN crowd generally prefers native apps and gets tired of the electron parade, but for major business software it’s increasingly table stakes that another person can see what you’re working on, live, by clicking a link.

Apple does have relatively good live collaboration in its iWork apps. Perhaps there’s a future API there?

Does it? As much as i like the iWork apps, my experience (and impression of the general sentiment) has shown that Google Docs et al continues to blow the pants off iWork in that regard
