Live Update Backend Example for DHTMLX Gantt

This repository contains a demonstration of a backend compatible with the DHTMLX Gantt Live Updates module.

How to Run

• npm install
• npm run start

App Structure

• crud.js - Mock data layer. Implements Create/Read/Update/Delete actions using in-memory data storage.
• websocket.js - WebSocket transport layer. Broadcasts real-time updates to connected users. Uses sanitize-html to sanitize the data.
• index.js - Express application entry point.
• public/index.html - Frontend example with JavaScript initialization code.

Limitations

This demo does not include permanent data storage and keeps data in memory while the app is running. For real-world scenarios, you will need to implement persistent CRUD operations.
