Is there a way to easily use these Realtime features in appwrite just like in the supabase.com/realtime

TL;DR
The user is asking if there are tools or resources available in Appwrite to implement real-time features such as live cursors, live avatars, live charts, location tracking, and form presence. They mention that they could not find any resources in the Appwrite documentation for these specific use cases. They ask if there are any helpers available or if they should look outside the Appwrite documentation for more in-depth information on creating real-time features. Appwrite support confirms that Appwrite has real-time support and provides a link to the documentation for more information. The TL;DR is that Appwrite does have real-time support, and the user can

Live cursors or multiplayer feature where I can share the position and status of multiple Cursors across multiple clients

Or Live Location. Where I can listen to changes in the database regarding the position of a moving coordinate

Our realtime API allows you to listen for changes so probably yes

There's no resources covering these use cases for Realtime in appwrite... and no simple helpers to help build these features without writing a boat load of custom code.

Please refer to supabase.com/realtime to see the use cases there and how they provide simple helpers to get started.

If there are helpers like the one supabase provides please let me know.

Or point me in the right direction outside the appwrite DOCUMENTATION to discover more indept realtime feature creation.
