As a consequence, +/// insertions take `O(n)` time. This means that LWWMap should be used for reasonably small maps. +/// However, note that even if we were using a more efficient data structure such as a `BTreeMap`, +/// the serialization cost `O(n)` would still have to be paid at each modification, so we are +/// actually not losing anything here. +#[derive(Clone, Debug, Serialize, Deserialize, PartialEq)] +pub struct LwwMap<K, V> { + vals: Vec<(K, u64, V)>, +} + +impl<K, V> LwwMap<K, V> +where + K: Ord, + V: Crdt, +{ + /// Create a new empty map CRDT + pub fn new() -> Self { + Self { vals: vec![] } + } + /// Used to migrate from a map defined in an incompatible format.
